First try with hairspray.

I thought I would have a try at chipping with hairspray, how hard can it be?
A coat of rusty brown with hairspray on top left for 10 minutes to dry.

Then a coat of buff, also left for 10 minutes to dry.

Then I set about it with a couple of different brushes and a cocktail stick.

Seems to work OK, now I know this will be old hat to you guys, but I have never tried this before and I am so pleased I just had to tell someone. :smiling:

I use Tamiya acrylic by choice, I have tried Vallejo but I can not get them to work properly for some reason.

ive always found a really stiff brush used in a sort of stabbing action works quite well

Tamiya is a nice paint to chip. Vallejo takes some getting used to but produces a nice chipping pattern once mastered
