Re: help; Lacquer curing time - Mr color

I've used Mr Color paints many times, but only used their clear once or twice. The clear I used was the Mr Color clear in the same glass jars as the paints come in and this was quite strong and did slightly affect the decals. Although I didn't push it, I feel that if applied heavily you would melt the decals. As for clearing over the paints themselves and a time frame for doing that, I can honestly say that I've cleared over them after a few hours and also after a few days and never had any problems whatsoever. They have never reacted badly to the clear or cracked etc. I always use Zero 2k clear coat by the way. This is also the only clear that I have 100% confidence with when spraying over decals. In 8+ years of use and over almost every brand and type of decals, it has never damaged any decals ever.
