oberonspacefruit:
top tip.


warm your room.

put the rattle cans in a washing up bowl of hot water.

dont expect to get it right and shiny for quite a while, just keep layering and layering.

especially round the areas that will get more abuse when you flat it down with wet and dry. ie the dropout edges. Laquer it if you want, i do usually, but paint thats been flatted and polished usually looks good.

leave it for at least 3 days before flatting it.

then t-cut.
