            What paint manufacturer are you going to use. Do you plan on using their primer too? I use only duplicolor products because their nozzle is the best one around.

            I like to paint with buzz cans in the morning when it is cool. It seems as it gets hotter it is harder to put on a glossy coat but when it is cooler it is easier to run the paint. The key to no runs is thin coats to start off and then make the last couple of coats heaver. I hope this helps.

            Cheers,

            Jim

                      Should I run these over the ESM's? I just don't know whether I should invest time and money into these over my current set.

                            i only use duplicolor. thanks, i didn't know about the cold being better, always thought it was opposite. other than that, i pretty much have my technique down. thanks.

                                i think waiting too long made the color coats flaky for me. i waited over an hour in good ventilation for the colors, and then overnight before the clear. i should have put clear while it was still 'soft.'

                                i used duplicolor.
