Testors dull cote?

Im new to modeling and the other day i was looking through some of my old model supplies and found this old can of Testors dull cote. It says its a clear flat laquer. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it does and how to use it.:) :D :cool: :D :confused: :bandit: :finger: :frog: :smoka: :silly2: :sun: :D :( :o :p :mad: :alien: :bloated: :devil: :licker: :smoker: :flash: :sun: :silly2: :grey: :finger: :bandit: :confused: :rolleyes: ;) :( :) :D :cool: :eek: :alien2: :flipa: :frog: :smoka: :smoker2:

I use it to give a semi-gloss appearance to gloss paint that is too shiny (seats, chassis, etc) Hope this helps! Welcome to AF!

thanks for the tip, now my interiors wont look like metal.Sorry about the smilies, i went to restroom and little brother posted as many smilies as he could.

There is a thing called the back-space button ;)

But welcome to AF.

(Dull coat does exactly as the name suggests, dulls gloss coats):p

Dullcote is on of the few good things Testor's makes. I use it on Interior seats and any thing I want a nice flat over all appearance. I use it to seal and level Carbon Fiber decals and then a coat of semigloss by testor's over that. I wouldn't spray it from the can it is better to spray it into a jar and airbrush. It goes on really nice and invisible(not a painted on look)that way. It probably gets too thick from can.

Boy, isn't that the truth! It's the best way to tone down the gloss on an interior. It's also a great way to seal paint-if the interior is painted in acrylic, sealing it w/dullcote is a great way to add detail painted acrylics w/o damaging the paint underneath. I'm working on the Fisher Alfa Romeo BAT 5, I painted the seats/interior Tamiya Italian Red, and am using black wire for the seat piping. When it's all finished, I'll hit the parts w/airbrushed Dullcote, making everything look just like leather.

Great stuff.
