*Rust-Oleum Acrylic Lacquer Spray, Clear Gloss*

[Dave G.]

I'm only going to say this one more time ? the green label with black chair Rustoleum lacquer goes on smooth and polishes easy. Hot acrylic lacquer is never easy imo. Looks like you got more polishing to do there unless you're happy stopping there.  Honestly I'd just rather shoot it down with Testors bottled enamels thinned with LT, 3 coats you're done with possibly no polishing and no clear coat. Shoot and run. Decanted Rustoleum 2X enamel will do the same thing. And enamel doesn't blush in less than ideal humidity. Just sayin, look at this link or video whichever shows up:

Thanks for the video Dave.  I have the Passhe H airbrush and I have sprayed Testors once before.  Not on a body but I sprayed the bumpers on a 56 pickup.  I will differently give this a shot next time around.

Hey Dave.  How long does it take the Testors enamel paint to cure out before you can handle it and start assembling?

A few days to a week for safe handling and building, unless you have a dehydrator or paint drying box.

Thanks man.  I'm going to give it a try on the next build.

By the way, in that time it still won't be fully cured but safe to handle etc.
