[QUOTE="Stefan, post: 53523, member: 793"] How big is the thing you want to paint? You could just spray it with a aerosol cans if its not too big a surface, otherwise it might get a bit expensive. Primer and surface prep is most important. Apply several thin layers of paint rather than a few thick ones. Orange skin effect can be sanded(wet) with some ~1000 gridpaper in circular motion. But it's important to be patient and let the paint cure before sanding and polishing, and that can take days. Then a few coats of lacquer which is more trickier to master. Tamiya has good quality paint and you can get it at hobbyshops at a price though. Polish till you're happy or gatvol. Toothpaste with a cotton cloth can also be used. [/QUOTE]
