paint sealer

thanks for the tip and yeah I use vallejo paint aswell which kyle did actuallly recommeded to me but I was wondering how good is the Testors Dullcote flat lacquer spray

If you're suffering from paint rub, here's what I do:

Follow the Super-glue joint protection tutorial listed on the F.R site. I believe it's authored by Dr. Nightmare. (Make sure you use "Krazy Glue" brand glue - it's watery when it goes on, and self-levels. Gel-based superglues leave a lot of white dusting when they gas-off during the drying process).


After it dries (I always leave mine overnight just to make sure, or at least a few hours) you're left with an ultra-glossy surface that the paint won't scrape off of.

To protect the rest of the figure, and to achieve a consistent finish, I found using Vallejo brand Varnishes (Matte is my preference) painted over top works amazingly well.

Vallejo (the brand Kyle Robinson uses) is good paint - but their varnishes are even better. I bought mine for about $4.00 per bottle at a hobby store. They come in eye-dropper bottles, which keeps the contents from drying out as you use it (unlike Citadel varnishes).

Hope this helps,

I use Testors Model Masters Matte Sealer. but you can go to any craft store and get the generic brand and get the same affect/results. I have.

what I meant was what brand of acrylic paint sealer.

you should use an acrylic sealer. but I recently used a ployurethane coating over arcrylic and it came out really nice. very protected too. the acrylic sealer won't have the gloss the urethane does, so you can go either way.

I'm using acrylic.

you using acrylic or enamel??
