Get your parts and strip them with isopropyl.it gets paint off if you use a tootbrush even more so.use right primer, I use alclad grey primer a lot and use acrylic paints, tamiya and citadel are the 2 I use.i do not use enamel out of pots.i use alclad spray from bottles also.and I use alclad gloss klear and theres matt also.
Rather than trying to find out whats wrong try the paints you have on their own on your left over bits from other builds.
Dont mix them together, dont use them ontop one another and dont use that clear coat with them.
Try your tamiya on their own with clear ontop after its dry.do the se with the other brands.just clear coat alone can cause paint to crack underneath it,also it can cause the paint to wadh off or smudge.
This is why I say just stick with 1…[Read more]
In reply to - BlaXun posted an update in the group Intermediate Modeler – Modeling Competition 2013 Help me please! As I reported before, I had to scrap my model-kit shortly before it was done because some colors reacted in a bad way. I now what to know what cuased this ...I just started with GunPla so I really can only take a guess what caused this. What happend is that a acrylic color got cracks when it dried. I attached some pictures showing this accident and some more pictures showing the colors (and the primer) I used. I had a first layer of Mr. Surfacer 1000 thinned with Mr. Color Thinner. On top of that a layer of H 19 Mr Hobby Color (a pink color, a laquer) also thinned with the Mr. Color Thinner. The problem started when I waited 2 weeks (to let the pink color layer dry) and then wanted to cover some party with the Tamiya Dark Gray (XF-24) which was thinned with X-20A Thinner. The Tamiya Color is a water based acrylic. My guess is that either the Mr Color Thinner or the H19 caused the Tamiya color to break. I really hope somebody can tell me what might have caused this :( Thanks in advance!
