Image Comments BriandKilby 05-Jun-21 14:35 rear of cockpit yellow crack bsadonkill 06-Jun-21 10:15 Looks like the paint on top does not stick to the bottom. Like trying to enamel over lacquer. BriandKilby 06-Jun-21 10:32 it's mission models paints, yellow over black green both acrylics. it says it airbrushes on plastic, resin, and metal. maybe that's it? edtherenderman 07-Jun-21 11:01 Brian, I've had similar problems, even with the same brand of paint if I put the paint on too thickly. It looks like the yellow is shrinking as it dries. I'd suggest: 1) sand off the yellow, 2)put a thin coat of gray or white primer (if you have it) or paint of the same brand, 3) Put on several VERY THIN layers of yellow, letting each dry completely before the next coat. I think you will find that, with the white or gray on underneath, you can use much lighter coats of yellow to cover and will not have as much issues. BriandKilby 07-Jun-21 11:49 thanks ed, the problem is this is plastic and the rear fuselage is tissue, so it would be hard to sand and i would have to start over. but i'll try putting a light coating of yellow on and see how that goes. by using a primer on the plane before painting helps in this situation? next time i'll try that. what kind of primer should i use? the enamel or acrylic? what order should i apply the paint? acrylic over enamel or enamel over acrylic? i can't remember. i looked up on the internet for a solution and they said the paint might be too dry or too wet? thanks ed! edtherenderman 07-Jun-21 12:21 Since you can't sand it, I'd put a layer of primer over it to seal it, then put the yellow on. I user regular car primer. In this case, I would avoid a "sanding/filler" primers since those are pretty thick. I'd look at gray or white. You just need something to seal the coats of paint below. As for order of paint, I usually don't mix. I'm using acrylics for everything now. However, I think you can apply acrylics over enamel, but not the other way around. Maybe someone here knows more BriandKilby 07-Jun-21 14:03 thanks ed, i got some enamel model masters primer, but i've been using acrylic. i'll have to look into acrylic one's though. thanks again.
