HELP! Do's and don'ts with Testors "Wet Look" Lacquer

Bill Newcomer Autor
This stuff is new to me. I need to know from those with experience, what exactly this stuff can be sprayed on. I imagine Testors lacquers and Bare Metal Foil are OK. What about. 2-3 week old enamels? Molotow chrome? Old decals? Freshly printed decals? Chrome pieces? Clear styrene windows etc. Your answers will help me in deciding which step to lay it on during body detailing. My goal is to get maximum shine and seal without screwing something up. Thanks in advance.

I love that stuff ! It's all I use ! just use it lightly if used with regular Enamel paint ! it has a tendency make it scar up and ruin the paint and it hates humidity !

Bill Newcomer Autor
Robert, Thanks. I have learned about the humidity issues with other paints.

Bob Hall
On that 2 part system paint I.E. that Root Beer brown paint you have, I works fabulously ! Again, all my cars are coated in this stuff !

Bill Newcomer Autor
Do you clearcoat then decal, detail and assemble or do you decal, detail, then clear coat and assemble?

Bob Hall
I spay it over the decals and use it as a sealant, doesn't hurt them at all.

Bill Newcomer Autor
That is good to know. Have you tried on any custom decals you have printed?

Bob Hall
yes, and Revell and AMT decals. never had an issue ever.

Bill Newcomer Autor
OK thanks.

Bob Hall
Go's on smooth and you can't see the decal edge lines.

Bill Newcomer Autor
Likely to keep them from drying out and flaking off too.

Bob Hall
Exactly what I was going for, I remember as a kid when the car would get old and that would happen and it looked like crap. This stuff is a god send in my eyes !
