Spray varnish

[John]

I don't like using varnish in my airbrush because I can never tell when it's clean, I have some Vallejo aerosols of varnish but I've had them about 3 years, would they still be ok to use?


If not has anyone tried the Mr Hobby UV clear sprays? are they ok to use on top of AK acrylic paints?


I've almost finished building a Spitifre (I will post pictures) and I don't want the varnish to ruin it.

As they are sealed they should be OK.  You can always do a test on some scrap plastic.


i haven't tried the mr hobby sprays.  The Tamiya Flat Spray Varnish used to be good.

Odd you should say this as I had a problem with the airbrush this morning due to not cleaning the Klear out of it properly last time.  My fault though, should have been more thorough.

I didn't think of Tamiya, I will try the Vallejo first see if it's still ok.
