Re: Broadway ltd announces 6,000 gallon ACF type 27 tank car
I tried to decide what would work for my 1952 layout and searched the ORER for info. I could not find the Columbia Southern or the Brown Company. The only Staufer I could fine was 3000 gal. Hooker

Re: Paint compatibility

You can't bake lacquer paints. Well, you can, but it does nothingbut
evaporate any carrier residue. Accupaint, Star, and TruColor arelacquers.
I think Tamiya may also be a lacquer but not sure

I would say that if the various coats are properly dried and baked onto the model, there should be on issues at all.

Re: Paint compatibility
Scalecoat & Floquil -- definitely ok. TruColor? Maybe a final color, AFTER the
Scalecoat is baked on. There should never be a need to bake TruColor -- it is not
