Painting/Priming / Flat paint turn hazy

« on: April 13, 2006, 04:58:06 PM »

Anyway friends, FFA is quite hard to find around my area, all the Walmart and other local superstore seem to run out of it. But I found a similar product that wil be available to most of you guys. It's a "Family Dollar"'s product, it's called Acrylic Floor Finish. So go to your local family dollar and get it.
I never tried future before but i'm telling you AFF is a wonder, it's only $2.50 about 27 FL Oz, and I only need like 2 coats of it to cover the hazy paint. It's like magic!

That's my 2cent!

If i'm not wrong it's one of those tool to keep out the humidity, make the paint dry faster.

So basically, you use FFA to seal everything, so i bought the tamiya clear coat(also flat base) for nothing
I learn something new today, thanks.

The problem i'm struggling with is Tamiya Flat Paint line. After finish airbrushing the kit with tamiya flat color, the kit turn into hazy suede like. What I want is the kind of finish similar to FF's works.
