Post subject:  painting resin?

i looked for the first few pages and didn't find anything.

i'm using a flat red tamiya on white resin (sc 300).

i didn't thin it at all, just wondering if i need to clear coat it, cause i don't want it to look glossy, but i don't want it to chip.

what are you using?

you could use matte monster kolor clear. that would protect it real good.

Not usually. I've had a can or two that will sometimes, do nice light coats. I've found if it gets sticky from a can, its sticky everytime I use it after that.

I have had issues with the krylon getting sticky later on after i had clear coated the toys..but then some people have had no issues with it. I have had great luck with the monster kolor clear coat in a can. Works perfect on resin.

the MK in a can is pretty amazing. It's very expensive though but awesome.
