Re: (erielack) custom painting

["Tom Schmieder" <dlw_fan_@_hotmail.com>]

If you would like to eliminate step #12, use Scalecoat paints for your color 
coats.  They dry to a very nice smooth gloss and don't need the extra layer 
of glosscote over them in order to achieve good results with your decals.  
Besides, every layer you put on adds up and diminishes the details on your 
engine.
