Did some more on this today and decided that the paint was not up to standard so I'm stripping back and starting again. Under my new task light I found too many flaws that I was not happy with!  |

Oh dear Pete , must be serious if you're doing that Yeap, loads of dust particles in the paint and I'm just not happy with the colours too. I think my spray booth is now going down the pan as well. Lucky I plan on getting a new one soon! |

Cheers chaps, the paint has been stripped off today using the brilliant VMS clean slate so it should get re primed sometime this weekend |

Here's the lynx all stripped back to bare plastic. One thing I discovered is that clean slate will actually remove mr surfacer. So if you use it on a model you have added texture to with mr surfacer be prepared to reapply.  |

That "clean slate" certainly is thorough  . Patiently awaiting repaint |

To bad you had to go that route, Pete but it looks very clean. |

Amazing how clean it looks! Does the paint adhere better the second time?

I was thinking more if the strip leaves a cleaner surface or any sort of etching effect for the second application to key to? |
