We've all got our own bogeyman ,mine decals and varnish ,both developed to ruin all your hard work ,any way more and more of the weathering products ive been using really need the model to be sealed up to get the best from them and ease of use ,dont get me wrong ive got on fine without it finding my own way using these products. The problem or fear come to that was always you do all that work only to cover it with a splatter coat of varnish. Recently ive been using ammo's lucky varnish nothing good to say about it but nothing bad either. Then in a light bulb moment remembered I had a pot of the VMS satin varnish in the cupboard ,this i got from the SM Shop age's ago after watching a video on YouTube. Watching the vid for a second time on arrival of the varnish I thought no way (well not thoes words but you know) the fella absolutely lashes it on using a air brush no he lashes it on all the time assuring you it'll be alright on the night.
So current build had got to the varnish or not stage ,at this point the varnish was retrieved from the cupboard and the lable duly read ,no need to thin best results with a.4 needle ,now hold on .4 thats massive spray real things with that dont you. I'd taken delivery of a new airbrush in the week with a .3needle so a good excuse to give it a run out so with the memory of how he lashed it on threw caution to the wind . Oh I lashed I lashed for England all the time thinking all that work down the drain once on flipped a plastic takeaway container over the top as a dust cover cleaned out the AB and left the room.
Wow on return I was bowled over , I hope the pictures do this product justice
A perfect satin finish ,have no doubts its so easy to use you just lash it on straight out of the bottle ,well worth a blimp at the YouTube vid like I said not for the faint hearted ,wished I'd used it ages ago if the matt and gloss are as good then for those like me with a varnish fear no probs lash it on and carry on. Throughly recommended so easy to use. Dave.
