OK. what sort of paint and cement do you use?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well to make your day im OLDER than you

i use a paintbrush at the moment ( saving up for a good quality airbrush )

OK. i did play a little game once using a Heller 1/125 747,and using only European-made materials{Heller and Humbrol paint,cement and bodyfiller} to build her...! the sandpaper was of German origin,and i even used French bottled water for wet-sanding and decals!

but many of those products do need a long amount of drying/curing time. Humbrol oil-based gloss paint takes forever! my personal preference is Tamiya,s TS-series lacquer,decanted from the spraycan and used through an airbrush. i also use a cement from Plastruct called Bondene{not sure if it,s available in the UK?}and Loctite Super Bonder for some applications,such as reinforcing fuselage and wing seams from the inside,and attaching some smaller parts.

i dont like oil paints.
not sure it is the only loctite i know of is an epoxy glue
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i use oil-paints a little now and again,but i,m sold on the Tamiya lacquer for most applications. Loctite makes a range of many different products,the one i was referring to is a cyanoacrylate cement.
