hello again,

i have a question about kleer. is it specifically used for planes or can it be used on armour and/or anything and everything.

and what exactly does it do and the amounts to use. lol.

cheers

It's just a gloss acrylic varnish,not some wonderful panacea. Because it is/was marketed as a floor varnish it was relatively cheap. There are many alternatives.

It can be used on any model for sealing and protecting paintwork and providing a glossy,smooth surface for the application of decals. This helps prevent the dreaded silvering which renders the carrier film visible.

Perhaps its most startling effect is on clear parts,particularly aircraft canopies. A dip in Klear imparts a lovely glassy shine.

Cheers
