Noob paint question

Triiad · 11-May-04, 10:14 AM

Hey guys...first post, kind of a noob question but...

I've read through the various guides on painting, and I can't determine wheter I should go for Laquer or Enamel paint.

Could anyone give me some advice on which to choose?

Thanks in advance.

Use lacquer paint.

If you plan on wet sanding and buffing definitely use Laquer.If you dont plan on buffing use a good enamel. If you use laquer on large parts without buffing, you will most likely end up with some dry looking patches here and there, as it dries really fast and can be hard to keep it wet enough to flow out correctly.
