cleat coat washes away my testors bottle paint. It did fine with model master spray can. So also you might wanna apply thin coats.

are you sure it's clear coat and not some kind of acid

Go to wal mart and buy some testors gloss clear coat spray can. dont spray it on testors paint tho, it might disolve it and look crappy.

I have been using TS-13 clear over other tamiya spray colors for all my kit and i have not encountered any problems before.

On my R390 GT, I got the same problem.. Paint is Model Master red spray.... look like I didn't give enugh time to dry (6 day) btw I wont buy anything other than Tamiya now... it's maybe 1 or 2$ more, but at least it dryin 24 hours, not 1 month !

only Clear Testor still very good.. but take over a month to dry

Hi
In fact I used the TS-13 in one of my cars and the experience do not went well...
I used the bottom of one car to spray it, but the result was the decal and the paint melted
The paint that melted was from Tamiya, the decal was from Tamiya...
So what went wrong? Was the distance? Was the amount of coat?
Any ideas?
Thanks

I allways use automotive colors like PPG, sikkens and so on...

i found out that u need to spray it from a distance if u spray too close then the paint will melt put LIGHT coats on it should come out fine im goin to wait a week or two before polishing
