Finishing

[John Pavlick]

Ed,
 I used the Nelson Urethane indoors (also water-borne) without any problems
at all. The only problem is the gloss (the cowl on the Focus). In all
fairness, I did color sand everything after only a day or so. Maybe if I
just top coated it with clear and left it alone the shine will come out. It
might be worth a try. They have colors to match Monokote and other films
too. Reduces with water (cheap). You can apply it with anything -  and I
mean anything. Even a foam brush. It doesn't smell and it's easy to clean up
the tools afterwards. If I can get this stuff to shine like PPG I'll use it
from now on.

  Steve:
  Since it's water based, is it feasible to use the autoaircolor paint
indoors with minimal ventilation?

  Thanks
  Ed

     Nat over the last couple of years I have been playing with Createx Auto
Airs http://www.autoaircolors.com/ they are water base paints that is used
for airbrushing although they do need a clear coat to bring to a shine. They
are extremely light and easy to use they just look dull as applied. They can
be mixed and matched to anything and have 128 colors to choose from, theres
a dealer you'll find on there dealer page called Dixie Art Supply in New
Orleans http://www.dixieart.com/CreatexAutoAir.html I have only cleared with
Lustre Kote which is not recomended by them, but maybe for the electrics you
won't need the clear. Good luck.

      I don't know whether to use polyurethane, latex, watercolor or
crayola. These electrics present all kinds of problems.
