Shawn M Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 power came back last night man'd up this morning/afternoon and sprayed the top and sides with future, this stuff sprays really nicely! while not "wet look" its mighty smooth with a great satiny sheen to it, should be a real treat to decal over about to head out for the rest of the day/night so tomorrow I'll hose down the bottom side and slap some pics up Shaka HI and Big Texan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka HI Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Ya..that's why I loved this stuff. And it's so easy clean up. Smells nice too! Big Texan and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaka HI Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 That coat of Future just makes all the color/tonal variations pop! Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 thanks Shaka I agree, excited to get the decals on as the extra colors are really going to make it sing! Big Texan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Texan Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Whew! See, I told ya this stuff is good! Has worked for me forever. When you finish decaling, seal it with more future, then dull coat it, you'll be amazed. Not taking away from the other products out there, or methods, this one just has worked for me well. Shaka is right, it's a breeze to clean up future. Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 agreed, the clean up is cake...water and more water Big Texan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Texan Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Well dag nabit! Dern thing won't let me hit the "Like" button! Anyways, yep, can't wait to see this jewel all decaled up! Shaka HI and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka HI Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Shawn, buddy! While I liked (notice the past tense) Future (sprays smooth, smells great, cleans up easy), my issue is that it caused cracks on my finished model weeks/months later. I'm not endorsing it. It's cheap, but it's not like I have many alternatives here. I'll be using Tamiya's clear or Testor's gloss/dullcote! Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
