Re: Group Build Williams FW11B 1/20
Cedric, Allan thank you.
Just been looking at it again and managed to clean up the slight overspray with some micromesh. Toying with the idea of masking up again to spray the red pinstripe next...

Re: Group Build Williams FW11B 1/20
Thanks Chris. It was actually fairly easy to mask, didn't take TOO long. Couple of hours maybe. It's sat drying now, on holiday next week so should be plenty dry by the time I'm back.
Just need to decide on which gloss coat to use, I would normally use TS13 out of the rattle can but I would never apply TS13 over decals. For this build I would like to gloss over my decals. I am reluctant to use 2pk clear because of it's toxicity. Any suggestions from anyone please...

Gunze clear top-coat is the best for your task. 2-3 layers.

Re: Group Build Williams FW11B 1/20
Got a coat of Gunze Mr Super Clear gloss from a rattle can on. Very happy with the results. Nice smooth finish and good gloss. This is to seal in the Zero paints to protect them and allow me to apply decals. Next step tho is to mask and spray the Brown/Yellow on the side of the chassis. Decals will go on later and then have another coat of Super Clear. Everything needs to dry for now tho so, till the next update.......

Just a little update. Got some decals on, all the red stripes on the chassis are on. Placed together to start work on were the decals overlap between chassis and engine cover. Looking good so far...
