I am thinking you meant to say clear coat ? ? ?

Regards, Christian B)

hey Christian,

No, I did mix a thin coat of the light brown tan colour and just misted it over the decals. I think I've seen someone on here do that (maybe Micheal C??) or read about it somewhere. It made them look a little worn.

I should have taken pics before and after!

OK, it's hard to tell from the pictures due to lighting conditions changing from one picture to the other.

I tink I can see some evidence of it.

I do that at least on some builds but I can't remember ever sharing it . It definitely cuts down on the contrasting colors. Nice job :good:

Cheers, Christian B)

yeah, I'll try and take a before and after picture next time. the effect was subtle but definitely noticeable!
