I was able to get them better looking (not great, but better) by going and purchasing some glossy spray and hitting them with that, mostly got rid of the frosting from the dullcoate. I just bought this stuff that's supposed to be super flat and it don't care about heat/humidity. It's still super hot in Texas, I'm scared to try it...<br /><br />V/R,<br />Jack<br />Just Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552962741823929433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-50176997686366571122019-09-18T19:19:30.979-04:002019-09-18T19:19:30.979-04:00Thanks Jack - I'm pretty happy with how those ...Thanks Jack - I'm pretty happy with how those GIs turned out. They'll look good for my upcoming Christmas MEGA GAME (hint) this year.<br /><br />I appreciate the MERDC comments. I'm happy with how they turned out too. The sad story was i dullcoated them in humid weather and it turned them to sh**. I then tried dry brushing over it which made it even worse. Figured I would just start over.<br /><br />Thanks for the comments, man.
