See what S-B has done to me,,,

Well here is my first batch. Primed and drying,, I will be painting in 2 weeks or when I get back from work,,,,, Hopefully sooner,,,

The types are,, 2oz for wind, 2oz swimmer, 1 1/2 oz swimmer
1 3/4 oz swimmer

Is anyone using any other means of final clear coat besides rotisere or flipping epoxy ?????? Like a clear spray on 2 part epoxy????

to everyone who has taken the time to post good information and advice....

When I bought my air brushes this guy in California told me about some stuff,,, once you mix it you have 24 hours to use it.... it is a 2 part,,,, like $20 a can...

and some other stuff that is 2 part that you need a 1.0 mm nozzle to spray on,,, Auto stuff,,, that was pricey too,,,

rustolium clystal clear enemal.
U-pol #1 clear is good out of a spray can.

my best was hanging by the noseloop and pouring 2 part auto eurethane over the top but even that got tedious.

1.0 seems too small to spray auto clear?
my clear gun is 2.4, might be different for airbrush though?

the air brush he said to get to spray this stuff was an Iwata w101. I was considering it but needed some feed back before I spent the coin....

Not sure why but the picture did not post.... How do I get that on here....
