Alclad paints

[ace91]

Hi guys,

I have a bottle of Alclad paint which I bought from overseas.

Can I use ordinary paintbrush to paint the parts using Alclad paint? Cause when I see the tutorial, they seem to use air brush & I don't have one.

Thanks.

Adrian

you have to use an airbrush

You won't get the same result as airbrush, but you can use a brush to detail small areas.

For best results, it needs to be sprayed over a glossy black lacquer or enamel, preferably the super-smooth undercoat made by Alclad.

Yep!

I think chrome is the most popular Alclad paint, so I just assumed - wrongly - that that's what he has.
