Microscale Micro Gloss

Has anyone used Microscale MicroGloss for there finish on there kits?Does this react like TS-13 clear if sprayed on too thick? I don't think so but not wanting to risk it and I'm wondering if anyone has used it or even pre-decaling then sealing the decals afterwards?:confused:

Microscale microgloss is a water-based acrylic paint and does not react with enamel and lacquer paints.

According to Microscale:

"The Micro Coat finishes are more than just a pretty look. This is one tough finish, and a real breakthrough in a modern formulation of water reducible acrylic resin. For models that get a lot of handling this is the answer. Even the Micro Coat Flat and Micro Coat Satin continue to look like new after a great deal of handling. One of the main reasons for the Micro Coat finishes is that they are the ideal way to be sure that your Microscale Decals perform up to their potential for realism. Micro Coat Clear gives you a 'wet look' shine that replicates the new synthetic paint used on the real thing. It is also the answer for a glossy base necessary for decaling. All the Micro Coat Finishes use the same water clear acrylic resin, which is tough and flexible and adheres strongly to paint and plastic. It is rated to last at least twenty years under ordinary conditions, for models this should be forever."

It's a good product for certain modeling applications, but one that I would never use for clear coating a body for example. It just won't give the same level of finish as you will get with what I call a 'proper' clear. It also doesn't polish out very well. In general I tend to stick to automotive type clears for their toughness and longevity. Zero 2K, Zero 1K, U-Pol 1K or for hobby clears Gunze Top Coat (water based type, in an aerosol can) which is great over decals, Tamiya TS-13 (but be very careful with this over decals) it can destroy them if applied too heavily. Also the Finisher's range of clears are very good.
