Hi, Rob.
Great link . . .
One question I didn't get a chance to ask you in Streator...After applying
decals over the glossy Future coating is it okay to spray the usual dulling
agents over it without any negative (or disastrous) reactions, or would it be
advisable to use chalks to get a final, flat finish instead?
Thanks and very informative and appreciated clinic, too!
