Natural metal finishes and varnish?

Agree with the above, I give a final polish with some denim material (of unknown but extremely high grit value )

Hi Ian
I ordered some stuff from John, the gloss black primer ( metal coat ) metal steel and aluminium and the gloss varnish ( all metal coat)


I have 1200 grit pads so I'll give the Mig a good ol rubbing first. I'll also do the same for the J10 but that's got ghost camo going on so the primer wil be normal Val black.


I'm hoping for a smooth NMF on the Mig and il try and dull down a bit on panneling And rivot detail


Hope it pans out


Regards


Robert

Hi Robert I would go with the others and get some finer sanding paper but the primer and paint are what you need good luck with it and I would do a little practice piece first just to see how it works with it being a very thin paint you will use a lot or flood the area very quickly if your not careful.

Hi Ian


I'm thinking of passing lightly over when I spray and from a distance ( got the wife on the saving the plastic milk bottles)


What a better grade than 1200 ( as I thought that was polishing grit


Your advice like any other is invaluable

I do use up to 1200 just like the ones you've got but give them a sanding/ polish with 2000 then 10000 polishing sponge
