FAQs
What is the best way to apply the panel liner?
Use a fine-tipped brush or applicator. Apply the liner directly into the panel lines and let it flow. Then, remove any excess with a thinner or clean cloth.
Can I use this on different types of models?
Yes, it is suitable for various model types, including aircraft, vehicles, and figures.
How do I clean up the excess panel liner?
Use a suitable thinner (acrylic or enamel) and a clean cloth or cotton swab to gently remove the excess after it has dried for a short time.
How long should I let the liner dry before cleaning?
Allow the liner to dry for a few minutes before removing the excess. The exact time may vary depending on humidity and temperature.
What kind of thinner should I use?
Use a thinner appropriate for the type of paint used on your model (acrylic or enamel).
How should I store the panel liner?
Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure to close the bottle tightly after each use.
Can I use this on a model that has a clear coat?
Yes, but it's recommended to test the liner on an inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility with the clear coat.
Troubleshooting
Liner is too thick or doesn't flow well.
Thin the liner with a suitable thinner designed for acrylic or enamel paints. Test the consistency on a test surface before application.
Liner is staining the model surface.
Apply the liner carefully and allow it to dry slightly before removing the excess with a thinner or a clean cloth.
Panel lines are uneven or messy.
Use a fine-tipped brush or applicator to ensure precision. Clean up any spills or unevenness promptly with a thinner.
