Post by deepcore »

How long do you guys wait to clear coat after using oil paints to dry brush a kit?
I put the piece in a rubbermaid style tub with a lamp in there to speed things up. But wait about a week, was wondering if I could get away with a just waiting couple of days.

Thanks

If it's an acrylic or lacquer dullcoat overnight should do. You're not usually applying much oil paints via drybrushing.
