Some paints are labeled "Gloss" and some aren't labeled at all. Examples of non labeled paints being Red Pepper and Patriotic Blue. What are they?

I have Krylon red pepper and it is a gloss finish. In my experience if the can is not labeled gloss or satin, it is gloss. All of my satin paint is labeled satin. Best method is look at the cap. If it is satin, the paint is satin. If it is glossy, the paint is glossy.

You did not answer the question. Is this Lacquer or Enamel? they are completely different kinds of paint.

It's acrylic paint. If you wash it off immediately, it comes off of most surfaces. Don't wear good clothes and be sure to protect the surface you are painting on.

I am not a seller of these products ,as I have never been. One can is clear coat , it maybe dullcoat . It is therefore different than gloss spray as it is shiny. I would treat these as two different types not the same . I have no idea how the seller is offering these products, one or both, but they are not the same. You should always of course use your own good judgement on these types of sales. Buyer beware and stop complaining and just don't buy junk when you don't know what is being sold. Ray

These paints may be mixed to create other colors. They are oil based paints. Painted objects take a couple of hours to dry. For best results, do not handle painted objects for a couple of days to allow for complete drying.

M/S paints are exceptionally good quality paints. Some of them are a bit thick, the high-gloss paints, more so than others. Paints also get thicker as they age. I don't know what the shelf life is on these paints, but I have found that they do tend to thicken to almost a "gel like" substance the older they get. Adding water is okay and does not effect the outcome of your project - as long as it's only a small amount of water. Too much water will make the paints lose some of the gloss effect and will not cover as thoroughly. If the paint is too gel like or too thick already, I would advise buying a new bottle (or set) to insure the best outcome for your project. The paint should Not be 'gel like' brand new. It should be thick but easily useable. A word of caution: Hobby and Craft stores, as well as Paint stores, often put their paints On Sale as they enter the end of their factory recommended shelf life. The paints are still good, but best used right away. Paints are also put On Sale as new colors hit the market and old ones fall out of favor, so not all paint 'on sale' has necessarily reached it 'sell by' date! I hope this info is helpful!

My understanding is that "Americopy" is the brand and is sold by various merchants. The labels weren't something I would buy again, having to throw away the ones I bought on Amazon.

Yes! All of these colours, as well as metallic silver and gold (which you can also snag on Amazon) show up really well -- surprisingly, the black marker shows up pretty good, too. The paint is a little shiny, so against a matte paper it's visible. Here's a quick test image for you: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88630699/uni-poscatest.jpg

The metallics take a bit longer than the flat and gloss finishes in my experience. You can thin it for better results, but using thinner coats of it straight from the bottle may work for you as well, depending on your painting technique (hand painted Vs. airbrush, etc.) Try thinner coats applied to the plastic model and doing multiple coats where applicable, first. If that doesn't/already isn't working, then try thinning it out progressively. You can practice on plastic spoons/knives to get your method down without running any potential risk with your model pieces.

They appear to have a semi-gloss. Should be OK with stamps, however I use labels Order some and give it a whirl.

I have to admit that I cannot understand completely the reason behind this. After reading through the information again, I have to assume it must be something with the paint. The finish on this cart seems to be a good quality paint with a nice film strength. Of course it is impossible to determine the exact makeup of the paint without significant testing. While it MAY contain some quantity of lead in the paint (or possibly another chemical..??), I personally would not be concerned unless I intended to use the cart as a direct food-contact surface. Sorry, that's all the information I have. It MIGHT be possible to contact the manufacturer (or supplier..) directly. Perhaps they could offer some additional insight.

I think they have a paint scheme on the box. I don't know about any specific kits, but your local modeler shop usually has starter kits. I would say flesh color, and I can't remember if the WWI american uniforms were chestnut brown but you can easily google their uniform colors.

I used a gloss paint from Ace. It was a dark grey, Then I used more spray paint, a darker grey. This will make part of the camo. I then used a aircraft grey, very light for stream lines that you will notice on pictures.

Yes. A few exaples are, ebay, tcpglobal.com, utrechtart.com and there are many more. To save money I buy acrylic (water based) paint at an arts and crafts like Joann's or Michael's. The liquid kind not paste. BUT IT MUST BE THINED WITH WATER FIRST. Too little water and it splats or won't spray. Too much and it runs and has coverage issues. Get that down and the choices are endless. So many acrylic colors available localy. Gloss, pearls, glow in the dark, etc. The cost is cheaper too, $1-3 for a 2oz bottle generally. Have fun.

There was no gloss on my board. It's like what they used in schools before the white boards. However, I did chalk it before I used it for the time. I recommend doing that.
