Well here's the thing. It's going to be one of two scenarios, one is your looking for an as is finish where it's good enough for that particular project. The second scenario is regardless of the finish you're going to polish it to take it to the next level, it really doesn't matter how shinny it is. In the second scenario all that matters is that the gloss coat with one or several layers can stand up to polishing compounds so hardness is the key factor here.

My opinion on X-22 Enamel: Straight it the bottle it's great for coating small parts like canopies and cockpit parts. If you paint it onto the model without thinning it, it leaves some visible brush strokes but when you run your finger over the surface it's as smooth as glass. It also dries quite quickly (straight out of the bottle) but self levels.

Tamiya clear has changed my modelling world. For 3 years I have struggled with the chemical make up of the paints and what clear I then put on before panel line or any oil shading and why I get it so wrong all the time. I grabbed Tamiya clear because I thought what the hell ?? I use there paints why not there clear. I even tried our own Aussie made SMS clear ready to spray and it didn’t work for me 🤷♂️ It was more than likely the psi I had set or something but it was shit for me. So back to trying Tamiya clear I can only fuck it up again right. At almost 40 : 60 with Tamiya thinner it went down marvellously 🤟 I then threw out my Tamiya dark panel line wash and just made my own with oils and enamel thinner. This combination has finally worked for me and Tamiya clear is it for me from here on out 👍

Hi Will, another cool video. I agree that the result of clear coating can be only explicitly demonstrated with video. I want to share my experience in searching "perfect" gloss clear. First, it really depends on the purpose. If you need some gloss on aircraft model just to apply decals and washes, then the main requirement to clear coat for me is that it should be sandable (to eliminate any imperfections, e.g. dust particles) and shrinks well (to save all surface details). And if it dries fast, then it's just another advantage. In this case you can use X-22 as you did in this video. You do not need perfect gloss surface here. And any of the surfaces on that F-22 would be Ok (maybe exception is area Nr 3). Also Gunze acrylic would do the same. BUT. In my experience the best solution is Johnson Pledge Future Wax, which is sold in USA. You guys are very lucky out there to have it, because it is a bit expensive to get it into Europe. I highly recommend it for you! Really! But if you need perfect glossy surface, then I look at this like this. Again, if there are narrow panel lines, rivets, etc. on the surface, then I would do the job with Pledge Future. You can even apply it with brush! For airbrush you can reduce it with vodka or X-20a acrylic thinner 1:1. But for the cars, where the surface is simple with no much details, I would go either with 2K urethane clear coat (Zero 2K, automotive clear) OR I also found that Gunze TopCoat blue can do the great job! Also I heard that guys successfully use Tamiya TS cans. But that TS paint does not like other paints then TS :) It is very risky to apply it e.g. on Tamiya acrylic. On my last bike I use 2K R-M clear coat after paint job is done to smooth it out and prepare for decals. I also apply it on top of decals. But 2K clear is hard to polish to 100% glossiness and use Gunze TopCoat as a final clear coat. It is super glossy and easy to polish. Here is a proof: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3LKdmyPndCahKs Enjoy
@barpfoto8 жыл бұрын
I agree with pretty much all that. Future is okay, but you shouldn't need to thin it at all. Regardless, I don't use it much anymore because aquagloss is so easy and provides a tougher finish. And absolutely on the 2K, As you might see in some of my other videos.
@volshebnikartmusic97828 жыл бұрын
Believe it or not, I also used 2K clear on F-22, to be more specific - on Italery YF-22 :) That was one of the first models I did after long pause in modelling (about 15 years long). And my purpose was to eliminate decal silvering and step between decal and surface... Anyway, I agree 2K are great and superglossy. The only challenge is to save all those surface details. I don't build too much models now (got a kid 7 month old), but will try Alclad Aqua gloss at some point. I promise ;) Good luck!
@BennyCFD8 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the great video. I guess one questions is for a particular model such as a high end car model that you want a super glossy factory look, as opposed to just a good all around glossy finish. I don't think the test panels would really be up to the standards of a super gloss. However panel three despite the orange peel you described (which could be taken care of by experimenting with pressure and technique) was the best. I've tried several products, floor polish several coats with very good result. Minwax acrylic gloss varnish. Again very good finish. Vallejo gloss varnish. so so but good. I've tried finishing with Carnauba paste wax. After a few coats very nice finish on top of a spray on gloss. Down side is trying to get was out of the tiny cracks. Buffing with Nylon stockings. Dryer sheets. In the end unless you absolutely need a super gloss for those special high end car models most of the above works fine. For me in the end good ole floor wax several coats then buffed and the minwax acrylic gloss varnish works fine for 80-90% of your gloss needs, plus price per volume they're much cheaper to use. Like you said everybody uses what works for them. Just another point of view from my experiences. Looking forward to your next video.

Want to try the X-22 clear for my next project, since I need a precise way of applying clear coat for decal applications. Currently use a conventional cheap automotive clear spray (both gloss and flat), as well as a glue washed down back then without airbrush for finishing. Decanting the clear spray onto a bottle might be a viable option, but I want to take a bit of a peek of the tamiyas clear coat for my airbrush Good thing I found this video, all of the questions in the mind had answered and made it clear- the question whether needed for thinning the clear acrylic before airbrushing or straight through spray, as well as the outcome if either approach and technique is used. Now I wonder if this also applies to the flat and semi gloss version of tamiya? Can I use a rubbing alcohol to level down the clear in place of the tamiyas provided thinner? I hope this reach out, so I can lay out my J2M2 build after my term. Heres a sub! Thanks :3

They are fast - inexpensive and have an amazing loadout. It’s obviously mainly Gunpla and sci-fi but they also have incredible prices and selections for tools and supplies and the like.

I think result is pretty predictable if you answer the question: how much water or snow you need to get a smooth surface either from small hills or from high mountains. The nature of matt surface is like mountains - to avoid reflection, which we experience with gloss smooth surface. Therefore it is not easy to get gloss from matt with NO sanding "mountains". How I did is I apply 1-2 layers of gloss, sand "mountain picks" and apply another layer of gloss coat. Best Regards

I doubt I will buy another bottle. if you prefer to thin with X 20a you should be fine doing that for either X 22 or XF 86.

Then it hit me that some time ago I had painted some cement with acrylic paints and sealed it with Behr gloss cement sealer. I still had some so why not try it. WOW it sprayed out like butter with an amazing high gloss finish! So give that a try and let me know how you like itas well. Wish I could post a pic. JW

+ke1stcav it's not a universal trick, and as far as I know it only works with lacquers or paints that will soften with lacquer thinner. The idea is that the solvent action of the thinner allows the surface of the gloss clear to flow together more easily, thus creating a smoother surface as it cures. It's an old painters trick, but there's honestly not much call for it in what we do.

how does it feel to take your time to make a snappy comment on youtube and yet to be so completely clueless?

Tamiya acrylics are different and not water based - therefore compatible with lacquer thinners. I would not do this w/ water-based acrylics like Vallejo
