Need Some advice from a painter on this clear

Mr.B · 01-November-04, 04:06 PM

Ok i picked up some paint this weekend which i used to paint my rig, but i need some advice on a clear that would work well with this instead of giving a crappy result which ive seen happen to some people, something that has to do with an acrylic base with an enamel clear or something.
..Heres a link to the paint i am using. http://www.hobbylinc.com/htm/tam/tam85053.htm

I allready have some duplicolor Truck, Van and SUV clear top coat http://www2.duplicolor.com/products/truckvansuv.html that is a high quality acrylic lacquer. Can it be used, or should i get some different stuff?

Thanx

It should work fine, like you mentioned, it is generally not a good idea to mix laquer and enamel.

I try to get all the same brand products if possible, that way there should be no issues with compatibility.
