Thank you very much, Jerry. I have heard of Glasuuit paint, but I have not been able to find it here in the US.
I will try the 50% thinning of the Dupont 2 part Urethane I use to get those nice thin coats you get.

Beautiful 956. I built the very old Mikeansue kit a few years ago & it was a fun custom.

Thanks Scott.

I use Glasurit brands.

*923-135 HS Racing Clear VOC lacquer
*929-33 Härter VOC 3.5 normal hardener

Regards.

Beautiful Porsche!

Thank you for your notes on your work.

Who's 2 part clear lacquer paint do you use? I have been using Dupont's Chroma Clear for years & most of the time I have to color sand & polish the finish.

Hi Pluscat
Thank you for your kind words. )))
To paint, I always use an airbrush.
The paint that I use,is the same that the actual cars scale 1 / 1.
That is, I use automotive paint for bi-coat.
First, is applied over the primer the color, in very thin layers of paint diluted 50%.
When the paint is dry and free of imperfections,
is applied on top, two-component lacquer (base + catalyst)
also diluted 50%, in very thin coats ,and with very little pressure on the airbrush.
If all is well applied, no need to polish.

Again a very nice and perfectly built model. Well done!!

How do you get such amazing perfect paintwork? I never seem to get such smooth finnish on my models. What paint are you using and how do you apply it (spray-can or airbrush)?
Do you pollish after painting?
