discussion Mr Color, is it lacquer??

[Guest]

At first I was making a right old mess pouring the Mr Color out of it's bottle (very similar to Tamiya's) into a mixing vessel then on into my airbrush cup. Then I was watching a video and saw the guy pour his paint down a cocktail stick / stirrer and it changed my life :smiling5: So simple but saves a whole load of drips and dribbles.

That’s exactly what the glass rod is for in a chemistry set....probably the most useful thing my first Chemistry teacher ever taught me LOL....I've been using it for fifty years.

It had never dawned on me Tim. Another one of those things that probably comes as second nature to those with more experience, but I'm gradually picking up tips like that.

To be honest, I usually get the same response when someone sees me doing it, even other chemists LOL....
It’s very useful in loads of circumstances when pouring something from a big can to a small one, and can be used two ways....rod in container poured to, or rod in container poured from.....both work.....
