Hello, I am about to give a wash to my WIP. I understand that for acylics I can use oil and turp for the wash, as for enamel and lacquer I should use acrylic wash, but....The wip is painted with Zero paint, which I assume is acrylic based? basically there are two areas I am going to do the wash:

Body is painted in Zero and clear coated with 2K zero clear

Chasis is painted with the same Zero basecoat without the clear....

So.....can I use acrylic wash for both? ( I tried to use alcohol on the chasis to remove some overspary of acrylics, but it damaged the Zero base coat :( )

Thanks !!

Use enamel it is much better for wash and it shouldn't damage base coat, although I would put some clear over it anyhow, either semi gloss or dull.

Interesting that you used uncleared basecoat for the chassis. Good idea!

I think un-cleared urethane would also produce the cool semi-gloss finish that's getting popular in Europe for supercars. It could be waxed to get that slight gloss.

If there were any Wiesmann GT (http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/2462/Wiesmann-GT-MF4.html) kits available, I'd build one just to paint it like that!
