    Mark, spray on the Vallejo metal paint. I take it you are using the Metal Color range, then use the varnish to seal the metal colour as it has a tendancy to partially come off. Then once the varnish has has about 24 hours to really dry then add your other paint.
    I have used this method on my tracks (Churchill b/layer), and saved myself a lot of pain. The other I use is the AK Xtreme metal, this is a lot more stable put stinks a bit, so open a window or use in a spray booth.
    Hope this helps
    Mike.

          Thanks to everyone, I think I'm on top of everything now, hopefully next post will be of the Bentley 2 attempt, after my last hiccup where it went pear shaped. :thumb2: :smiling3:
