You polished your paint Jerry?

Thanks John.
I don't polish my models.
The brightness is due to the two-component acrylic lacquer I use.
If accidentally, get some speck of dust in the lacquer,then I remove it using wet sandpaper # 1800 or even finer,and again I apply a new coat of lacquer.

Thank you Jerry for the explaining.
I use always spray cans from Motip and polishing is a must.
Maybe I had to learn to paint with a airbrush, will save me a lot of time.

Hi John
I'll strongly recommend you to purchase a good airbrush with nozzles fine and superfine and a silent compressor with variable discharge and with a storage tank for the compressed air.
The paint finishes are stunning on any scale ,and the quantities you need to buy for each color are minimal and cheap.
