azza Posted July 31, 2008 Author Posted July 31, 2008 plastic mate fits nice but just cant seem to get the nice shiny finish like the standard paint work azza
loonybin Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 GO TO YOUR LOCAL PAINT STORE AND GET A BOTTLE OF G3 IT WILL COME UP OK .
emoe Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 More than likely the temprature of the air and item were not warm enough, and the fact there was moisture in the air made the matt finish. Always paint in a dry and warm area, and allow the item to warm up to the same temprature. If painting bu using a spray can, use very light coats, and plenty of them, laying on more pain each time. Each coat should only tack dry, not totally dry.
