  1. Thanks for the paint info

    Hadn't heard of humbrol satin spray - just looked around on the net & I see an aerosol can of humbrol acrylic spray (big red/white label).

    Is this what you used? (& straight from the rattle can)?

    If so I'm going to order some & give it a go. The idea of a final finish right out of a spray can makes me nervous but your results speak for themselves & if that's how you achieved your finish I'll brave it...

    Thanks again for the feedback

    Doug

      Humbrol satin 135 Acrylic varnish  straight from the can, dries very quickly a minute or two.  I shake well and do parts at a time ie top wings, then side then other side,, wear a glove, no time for finger prints. 

      Just light coats make sure can is warm this expands the gas inside and give great spray practice on something 1st to get a feel for it I think it's great varnish.
