 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?

Re: painting resin? you could use matte monster kolor clear. that would protect it real good.

Re: painting resin? 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. ribbon controller wrote: ^^ the krylon clear coat doesn't get sticky?

Re: painting resin? 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.
