The question is with an eye to LPR/MPR and scale models.
What varieties of rattlecan white (and black) paint give the thinnest possible layer when dry, yet are opaque enough to cover colors?
Surely there are hobbyist-type paints that are intended not to blur details excessively. That's the kind of paint I'm looking for. Some variety of Rustoleum or Krylon might be okay but I'd rather go with a hobbyist paint that's specifically designed for this. My experience with (some) big-box-store paints is that it takes more than a few layers for adequate coverage. Probably my poor technique.... anyway, after putting in all the time and effort in building and in finishing, I'd rather pay twice as much for a specialty paint that will definitely do the job.
Looking to paint some of the parts on the Saturn V/Skylab and others, before I assemble them.
Suggestions? Many Thanks!
Terry
