[@BennyCFD]

I use Createx regular formula and the Wicked Colors and they're very good, especially for adhesion (tape test) and hardness. For scuffing just use a scotch green scouring pad. You don't have to worry about sand marks, and it's cheaper. I know it's a personal preference, but I've tried the 15 minute setup method and spraying right after the 4012 and the 4030 and to me there is no difference. Maybe because I always dry with an airbrush after. I dunno. I really love the 4030 acrylic polyurethane. I use it with all my acrylic paints. Remember Createx dries semi gloss. From watching numerous videos I believe you can wet sand almost right after it air dries. Good stuff Thanks for another great video.

[@barbatosrex9473]

For the record, Mission Model Paints poly additive is the same thing as 1030. Even in the same bottle and I believe from the same state. Maybe one in the same??

[@BennyCFD]

@@barbatosrex9473 I'm sure it is............I really like to use the acrylic polyurethanes. You have so many videos, you must easily have hundreds of bottles of paint. Do you think you'll ever use them all. I know there are other videos out there. How about doing one on airbrushing nail polish. Thanks..............................................

Thanks so much for that information. I’m painting modified polystyrene toys and have been having shit luck, both with the primer (Tamiya Fine Surface Primer) sticking and the Createx adhering to that. I’m cleaning/degreasing the raw surface before priming and scuffing the primer before applying paint and can’t figure out what the problem is. IfCreatex will stick to an ordinary grey spray can primer, I’m gonna give that a go. Thanks again for the advice.

Since this video was made, Createx has changed their "Go To" reducer from 4012 to 4011 for use in all Creates and AutoBorn paints. Just a short time ago, Createx has release a new 4021 reducer that is now their recommended reducer and is supposed to increase the flow and reduce tip dry. 4021 contains (from their SDS sheet) 1-methoxy-2-propanol (CAS # 107-98-2)

[@haoliu1118]

The createx shift color can also use the airbrush cleaner made by createx? the 5618

[@AutoBodyEverything]

The createx "candy 2o" suggests using 4011 for reducing. Although its ready spray... I have the 4012 reducer, is that going to be an issue? As I am painting lexan bodies? I got he 4012 reducer because I was avoiding too fast of a drying reducer bcs I dont want my tip to build up with dry material and I wanted less overspray in my art work. I get my facts from being in the body/paint industry 24 plus years. I just want confirmation on the 4012 reducer's drying speed and application in regards to lexan bodies and the 4011 reducer.

Over black or gray primer can it be stynlrez? and does it need to be gloss primer? Or have things changed and should I wait for your new Wicked colors video. By the way my Hobby Lobby has stopped selling wicked paints and replaced them with Vallejo model colors

[@barbatosrex9473]

I hate to say this but things have changed at Createx and they now recommend a different way to prep the paints. They have a new clear that you blend the paints with and no longer do you use 4030.

Complete noob question- I would like to know the most matt/flat paint. What paint brand should I buy, or is there a special technique I can use to give that effect?

[@DansModelBench]

You can get a nice flat finish by dusting a coat of polyurethane based matt clear, like the ones from Creative, Mission Models, AK-Interactive etc. Typically you build them up with very light dusting coats (opposite to glosses), until you have matted the subject down to the level you want. You thin them with their own thinner/reducer brand. The thinning ratios vary quite a bit, so best to lookup the companies website to get some ideas. Probably the easiest to start with is the Mission Models which is two or three drops of their thinner to 10 drops of clear. Once you are more experienced you can experiment with some of the other countless brands out there. Dan

[@The901meister]

@@barbatosrex9473 Primers and surfacers are 2 different animals. A primer is used to etch or prep bare metal or previous coats of paint to accept a coat of paint. A surfacer is a primer used to fill imperfections and has more solids. There are also sealers for use when there is a chance of reaction between the new coat and the old paint. Also thinners and reducers are not the same thing. When you paint enamels or urethanes you use a reducer, and use thinners for lacquers. Both of them would be classified as solvents.

If your painting a model you’ve already primed do you still need the 4030 since you aren’t spraying directly on the plastic or is that still required?
