Title: 3 colours, which order ?
Post by: tizdaz on December 08, 2021, 12:41:41 am

Hi guys, Im going to soon be spraying my TID Hull using 3 different colours (Red for the bottom, then green in middle then black at the top of it).


What is best way to do this, should i spray with black colour first, then the green & finally the red? ...so darkest colour first, or vice versa!? ive experience spraying RC lexan car shells, but they are sprayeed form the inside so im not quite sure with my TID as i will obv be spraying the outside :)


If so, do i just mask off where i want the black, spray, remove masking tape, then mask off where i want the green & then same for the red ?


Cheers! :)

Hi


I always go light first, dark last.
