How long have I got to re-coat (Tamiya lacquers)
I got three mist coats and two wet coats down tonight, but I can't add more wet coats until tomorrow morning. Is that OK?
I was doing the coats every 15-30 minutes per recommendations, didn't know if I needed to stick with that method or not. |

with lacquer, it doesnt matter how long you wait. 5 mins or 5 days, you can add paint anytime.

Re: How long have I got to re-coat (Tamiya lacquers)
OK, thanks. I laid another coat on this morning befoe work.
I noticed a few worry spots: A couple tiny 'bubbles' almost on one side of he car, and some uneven spots in another. I'll tell you, probably the last time I use Tamiya lacquer from the can: I'll just decant the stuff and use my airbrush from now on. Way too much over spray, paint going everything, small areas don't get enough paint, etc. |

i don't know about you but Duplicolor spray cans are much worse than Tamiya spray cans. They don't propel as strong and the particles are pretty damn rough, so a dedicated sanding job is required.
