Starship Modeler Discussion Forums

Always had the problem with silver paint that even if you can get it to go on nice and look like metal, as soon as you try to put a clear coat on to protect the decals and the powdery finish most silver paint seam to have, the clear coat has always messed up the silver turning it a greyish colour. Well I have just given ‘Pledge one goâ€￾ floor shiner a go and it worked great, did not effect the silver and if anything made it look more metallic, in fact looks almost as metallic as bare-metal foil. The stuff is cheep as to, about AUD$6 for 500ml. Will not work through the airbrush though goes all beady but I applied it with a wide soft brush and it smooths right out. Anyway im shore I have not discovered anything new but felt the need to share.
