discussion SMS hyperchrome sealer and hyperchrome dark tone.

Thanks, so can I use an acrylic gloss varnish over the model and then put in the panel lines? And then seal the whole lot with a matt acrylic varnish?

Yes !!

Does that mean that if you use a water base clear coat, the chrome paint could be un affected? Cool. I'll have to try that,

Just for you guv I've been doing a little test over the past few days (realistic chrome takes a long time )

This is hyperchrome warm tone, clear coated with VMS gloss on the left, Alclad aqua gloss on the right.

I found it ridiculously hard to photograph but looking at the reflection of the green cloth where the two pieces face each other, none of the reflection has been lost by using a water based acrylic gloss.
