_www.swannysmodels.com/TheCompleteFuture.html_ (http://www.swannysmodels.com/TheCompleteFuture.html) I have used it mainly to make plastic windows look like glass, and it makes a better water effect than varnish. Johnsons Klear has gone from the shelves here in the UK as it needs ammonia solution to clean it off properly, which make a lovely whiff when used to clean an air brush. Definitely an outdoor job. There is a substitute that I have not tried yet, which can be cleaned up with vinegar. Cheers Barry Bennett Coventry, England.

As Jack mentioned, it is not necessary to apply to the entire car; I sprayed several light coats and allowed to dry overnight. I sprayed windshield washer fluid through my air brush to clean it. When applying the decals, I used just water to set them in place, instead of the Micro Blue label; I blotted the excess water. I too applied Dullcote over the model. I am very happy with the results and will use it for future projects. Jim Brewer Glenwood MD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian J Carlson" <_prrk41361@...

Sent: Friday, June 4, 2010 10:30:30 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [STMFC] decal finishing help I've not been happy with my last few decaling projects with Testor's Glosscote. Lots of work with setting solutions and creative weathering have helped make them better but I am looking for other decal finishing options. I've used Glosscote for years originally from spray cans so any thoughts are appreciated. I've heard about Future from others anything special I should know. Spray right from bottle or dilute?
