Just tried frosted glass spray paint....it works a treat!

I have the Master Replica Enterprise model, looking at the windows i'd say that this is exactly what was used here

Sounds like the paint is too thick to me, thin it down a step at a time until you find a mixture you like!

Don't know if this is of any help? However, years ago i used to be into racing RC cars, we had to paint our body shells with either Pactra or Tamiya paints (A different range of paints designed for lexan bodies), the paints have a different formula and when dry have flexing properties.

The Tamiya paints must smell better...surely!?

After two full days of using Tamiya my head feels a tad trippie

I use to great effect Karismacolour pencils, available in a variety of shades. Take note: These only work on a flat surface, if you want the model satin, first spray it with matt-use the pencils, then when your finished satin everything in.
