Here are a few I have gotten asked (in the USA)...

1) With the quality and selection of paints improving over the last 25 years; what is the best type of paint (acrylic, enamel, lacquer, oil, etc.) for the following subjects and why? (aircraft, military land forces, automotive, trains, figures, etc .).

2) Regarding air brush painting; what are the air pressure needs for a quality air brush compressor? Does it need an air storage tank, a pressure regulator, or a moisture trap?

3) What is the difference between a single or double action air brush and which is better for the various applications?

3) What are the easiest, quality, affordable, high gloss automotive paint processes on the market (primer, base, and clear coat) for scale plastics and cast vehicles?

There have been many more over the years, but this is a start.

Happy Modeling
