Spray Painting Clear Plastic Windows

Post by js1714 »

Hi ALL,

could someone please point me to a good demo of how to correctly spray clear plastic windows,,? I just can not get it right,, :oops: :oops: I need it so that even though they are sprayed (Green, Blue, Smoke) you can still see through them.

Any help from you master's out there would be greatly greatly appreciated. :th: :th:

Model on Slaves...!! :bash: :bash:

The way I heard long ago was dipping the parts in Future with a few drops of Tam clear or food colouring.
This was on Swannys site regarding canopies , but same theory.
Hardest part now would be obtaining the Future/Klear/Unicorn wee :scratch::
(I know your not a fan of the elusive juice Paul, but it had its uses. ;) )
If it`s got a Dragon or a Dwarf in it .....I`m out ! :pistols:
