Paint lines....
« on: March 04, 2012, 08:20:13 PM »
Working on my 2nd and 3rd G4 customs and the gray paint on one of them looks great, but the white one I'm working on is so streaky, how does anyone work with white paint and make it look smooth?

Try thinning it down and doing fewer, thinner coats. Or get an airbrush. Airbrushes are wonderfuls.  ;)

Light colors always take more coats. It a pain but you just have to be patient with many thin coats. Eventually it will be even.
