Post by: tomo55 on November 02, 2010, 12:25:24 pm

Hi can the Red primer be used as the underwater colour for a model boat if so what could be used to seal it ie clear varnish etc?
If not what Halfords spray colour is recommended?

I see you have the answwer but anyway, avoid PU varnish, Humbrol Acrylic works fine

Would Halfords Gloss Lacquer spray be OK.

I use Halfords acrylic spray lacquer - very durable and can be over-coated with (Humbrol) enamel-based satin or matt, if a different finish is required.
