Salut everybody,
I have a question concerning using a gloss coat on top of a Tamiya acrylic base color and need some help or advice on this.
I'm am currently converting my Legacy Collection Millennium Falcon and took the following steps already:
1. Primed it with Tamiya Fine Surface Primer Light Grey
2. Applied Tamiya AS-20 Insignia White as my base color.
Everything turned out great. Now I'm at step 3, which is applying a gloss coat in order to do a wash using thinned Tamiya Smoke X-19 which will receive a Tamiya TS80 matte spray.
I tested a Marabu Gloss Coat on a small side panel part, which lead the Tamiya AS-20 to dissolve relatively quickly and I somehow anticipated happening.
My options are relatively limited, so I think about coping Tamiya TS-13 Gloss Clear and wanted to know if anybody had experiences with it in combination with Tamiya Acrylic paints, or any other gloss coats/clearer which don't attack the color underneath.
Thanks in advance everybody for any recommendation or answer.
