Re: Alclad II vs. Kosutte Gin San...bye, bye Alclad!
I'm guessing it is the same stuff, the only question is whether or not the two are of the same sieve size and if the size makes a difference to the effect.

Seeing as it is a powder that you effectively compact onto the surface, my question is seeing as it can't really be cleared effectively/consistantly, what happens when you try to (tamiya) wax it?

edit: I've also seen another chinese/hong kong version of this sold in a teeny little tub for about HK$70.
I'll see if I can find it online.

No need to wax it. It's very gloss as is because it's on a base of gloss black. You can decal it very easily without a problem. Just be careful...

Right. Can you tell me what constitutes getting "the basecoat just right"?

Yeah, I'm puzzled by that. The basecoat is black! How can you mess that up by getting it "too dark"??
