@ Uber: As a matter of fact, I did! I forgot to mention that too! ;D You can use the plastic eraser to clean up the part that dried off too quickly. Heck, you can also use your fingers to rub it off!

Oh! Before i forget (again) You can also spray clear coats on your kit first before panel lining and then spray again after to prevent smudging your hardwork! ;D I learned that the hard way!

Yup! Clear coat sprays can be bought at Tamiya paint shops. It has 3 variants, the flat or matte, the semi-gloss and the gloss. Its usually priced at 200. ;D

I prefer the flat or matte. It gives out a realistic finish out of your kit. It entirely depends on you though. ;D You should know your preferences right?

Note when panel lining, its best you coat it with clear gloss first so you can wipe the excess off easily, afterwards you can coat it with clear flat. Its harder to wipe off excess under a flat/matte surface.
