Admiralty paints and varnishes-Occre Terror


Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

Some newbie questions as im doing my Occre Terror(see the log).

 

Cause im not familiar with different paints, varnishes and stains so therefore i ordered Admiralty products as they seemed safe way for me.

 

1) Can i thinner paint with Tamiya acrylic thinner?  Amount is so that its runny but not like water?
2) How many coats of painting i should apply?

3) How to thinner Admiraly varnish? 
4) Is it possible to glue for example copper plates on painted hull? Any tips there?

5) How many coats of varnish should i apply? Also i read that you should sand a bit between coats?

 

Thank you for smart answers to newbie questions.

I can't answer all of your questions but for number 2, as many as necessary. I usually do 3 coats. Question number 4, yes. I did so over primer on my Constitution with no problems.
