Why do folks keep mentioning Future Floor Wax? What do they use it for?
Future is a clear acrylic enamel (it’s not a wax) that turns out to have numerous hobby-related uses. Future makes a great clear coat. It dries fast and will not harm paint or decals. Future can be sprayed through an airbrush unthinned. Spray light coats, as Future can run easily if sprayed on too heavily. You will be amazed at the gloss. Let Future dry at least 24 hours before applying decals. Some decal setting solutions or solvent will cloud Future as they are being used, but this cloudiness goes away as the solvents dry. You can clear Future out of your airbrush with rubbing alcohol. Some folks also brush on Future using a flat wide brush. Use a brush with soft natural hair bristles for this, as the synthetic bristles don’t seem to work as well. You have to brush very slowly in order to avoid getting air bubbles in the clear coat.
