Just bought a can of testors clear coat. Heard that this stuff really shines...apparently shinier than Tamiya's clearcoat?
Wondering if that is really true or not.

I noticed that testor spray cans do not have an agitator ball.....

anyways, i look forward to your comments

testors spray cans are terible you will need to place the can in hot water for about 10-15 minutes to build the pressure up when you start to lose presure heat it ip again
good luck

Testor Clear coat #1814 is ok.. I used it with good sucess. It's hard to work with, but the clear itselft is good stuff.

all other number are crap.. so if you have the #1814, it should be ok..

I use Duplicolor Clear coat now.. cheaper than testor and easyer to work with

Hot water in 10-15 minutes?
I hope it won't explode. :D

Just use two cans, and when one can gets cold and start losing pressure, put it in a bucket of water, and use another can. By the time, the 2nd can cools down, the 1st can should have enough pressure.

Or use one can, and take a break between each session. Dry the paint and warm the can at the same time.

I just bought 2 cans of Kylon's Crystal Clear. After having used Future and having to deal with its cracks and color changing abilities I want to try something else.

I just sprayed a little of it onto a model i was about to strip and it worked well. I airbrush so it took a little guess work to put it on correctly but it dried fast and looks nice. Its shinier that Future and it doesn't yellow.

I've never used Testors Clear coat. I'm using Revell N°1 for years now. Very satisfied with that. ;)
