This is the only Humbrol product I use; I've never had a problem with it but I can't say its the best because I have never needed to try any others

TET can be used on clear parts? I did not know this. Did you have to use anything else to make it work?

No just used a minimum amount and had no problems. Cut off a piece of clear sprue and see for yourself. :th: :cheers2:
