When people say clear coat with this product does this mean I need to put a clear coat on first or after I've sprayed this this is for the Z tune

When painting you will need to paint in 3 distinct stages : 1)priming (this provides something for paint to grab to and an even base colour, just get a grey plastic primer or something) apply evenly in 3 or so layers and allow each layer to dry before applying another. 2)colour coat (this is this product) apply 3 or 4 layers of this paint and again leave ample time for each layer to dry 3) you WILL need a gloss clear coat , without doing this the paint will appear dull and will cause the decals to peel off if you don't apply a clear coat over them. Let the colour coat dry for at least a day to let it de gas and then apply 4 or 5 layers of clear coat . I suggest you watch a few YouTube videos before hand to ensure you know what to do. Hope this helps :)

Great paint if used carefully.

An excellent paint from Tamiya. It sprays well providing you are very aware of how these paints behave. Yes, they will run if you over apply. The key is to prepare the object you are spraying, and then apply several light coats. The results are excellent. Good gloss or satin etc. Take timer and you will be pleased.

Good quality but still expensive.

Provides a very even, glossy finish. Sprays uniformly and consistently. But expensive nonetheless. Consider cheaper alternatives.

doesn't like being sanded I found

Don't whatever you do lay this on too thick, or overspray a coat when wet. Also, doesn't like being sanded I found. Great result but tricky to achieve

This paint is exactly as expected although a little on the expensive side for a small can of paint,
