Eric Thanks again for sharing such a good job.
I'm working for the first time with Tamiya spray lacquers right from the can also, so I find this very interesting!
And is the reason why I'm asking if it is possible for you to go a little deep on the explanation of the process you followed to acquire that finish?
How many coats? Mist coats? Wet coats? Time between coats? Sanding? Polishing process? This would be a much appreciated help.

Thanks again!!
