Timc Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I have some of these paints but have never used them and it occurred to me that since these paints are lacquer based, would it be possible to use a paintbrush with Mr. Color paint? In painful past experiences I learned that it is generally not a good thing to hand brush lacquer paint as it destroys the plastic but is Mr. Color any different?

Members Mikester Posted January 17, 2014 Members Share Posted January 17, 2014 I do for touch ups, but it doesn't seem to work well for large areas. Mr. Color is an acrylic lacquer so I don't think it attacks plastic the same way regular lacquer does but I've never got good results hand brushing it. Maybe someone else has some a trick though.
