What special paint is needed ? Aside from the basics.

The actual airplane was built out of duralumin alloy (mostly aluminum) and steel. A veteran pilot told me the aircraft were cleaned with a special fluid between missions. So I chose to finish the plane with aluminum foil using an adhesive sprayed on the back. The dull side should face out. Where the main spars pass through the fuselage, there is a steel panel atop the aircraft that can be finished in a steel color. Another place like this would be the engine exhausts.

I used fusion for plastic nickel shimmer. Worked great. Got it from amazon.

Testers used to make a 'buffing' aluminum spray paint. Worked well to give they 'shinnyaluminum' look look these planes did during WW II. Spray it on, let it dry completely, then with a soft rag 'buff' the paint out.

You have to build it. It's a fairly easy build, however the painting on this particular kit is quite difficult.

No you need to get the spray paint and atleast a starter kit that comes with some paint and I think glue

It will not be hard...you may need an extra coat of paint but it can be done.

Actually youd be quite surprised at very few colors id go with primer first then spray with either can or air brush special effects would use a few more colors than revell calls for

I don't know if you can get extra paint or not. I had plenty paint for this project.

Yes, I believe all of the Dimensions Paintworks painting require some blending...but that's part of the fun...just purchase some empty pots for mixing colors. Have fun!!

You need to paint it. It's an amazing product..my dad took 3 months to complete it..each little piece needs to be painted.

What I like to do is use a good sealant first like "Klasse", then apply a carnauba wax like P21s over it. It helps to have a good paint job to begin with of course.

You need a base coat, primer and top coat and light. It's all part of the system.

There is a glossy finish (clear coat) but you could easily paint it. Use a basic primer first. A stain probably would not work.

I wouldnt recommend paint as it.would go on unevenly and thick. Maybe a red sharpie would be better.

Yes, you can paint it. It would be very easy to paint it before you installed it.

While I m not a professional on the subject I would suggest a spray paint that is compatible with the material. Prep the surface as needed and spray as desired using caution as not to clog the openings. Good luck.

Hey there Wade Guzman. For this MG 00 Raiser, there is no painting required what so ever. The plastic pieces are molded in their correct colors and very few marking seals are added to put the small details in that cant be put there otherwise. All this kit really needs is some panel lining and itll be a stunning addition to your GunPla collection. It sure added some bang to mine :D (ask me back if youd like an explanation of that)

I would suggest lightly sanding the black with 150- 220 grit paper so new paint will grip well. If you can prime with something other than Latex, be better off on metal, perhaps rustoleum. I f you can get the paint in oil , would be best, but unlikely. Use gloss at any rate as harder finish I believe. The last option...Move ! Kidding Mark

no you don't have to paint it, you can to give it your desired color, the most you can do is line in the small channels with grey or black lining marker
