I finally am on the PermaWet stage and i was told you can brush or spray. I was brushing on PermaWet with a paint brush and the tips were taking some of the paint with it. I mixed in Prosaide with the paint on all applications of paint so why is it doing this???? not enough Prosaide? Or is this normal and maybe im pushing too hard and after the first coat dries will it hold better?????
I managed to get the layer on by dabbing the stuff on very carefully so it wouldnt scrap off the paint
Im hope I didnt screw it up cause the paint job is good for my first one....the spots the came off luckily are where my pred spots are very dark so i can repair it. Since I have already PermaWet it, i can paint those spots over by first adding prosaide to the spot, painting and PermaWetting again right? Also, can I use my airbrush to spray on PermaWet if so whats the mixture?
Basically if you think I messed up by not using enough Prosaide let me know but i went with a 50 percent paint...25 Prosaide, 25 water in the mixture using Liquitex acrylic and some Golden black for the spots.....Also if u know of anyways to toughen the paint what else can i do?
If the paint chipping is normal and is only because i was pressing too hard also tell me....i know paint comes off over time like in the arm pits and crotch where rubbing is non-avoidable....i would just feel better that after the first layer it will protect the paint much more.....its been going great till now.....now im stressing
Thanx guys
