Hi gang,

I'm currently using vallejo gloss varnish via airbrush, however I'd like to try something that really does spray straight from the bottle as I have to thin the gloss (satin and matt fine)
I've used future in the past and a friend recommended adclad aqua gloss but I'd rather hear your opinions.

Thanks on advance

Del

Zero paints clearcoat works well, but it’s lacquer based so not directly comparable to acrylic gloss.

I tried that some time ago after seeing the video and it's not as free flowing as well from either of my brushes.
