How good is the coverage of the Paint? Since I am trying to paint the uncolored (black) pieces from the Valvrave I Full Impact model kit.

It's very good, I've repainted Red frame with a set and they're still going. But be sure to shake them well and most likely you'll need to do more then one coat, let the coats dry 100% be for re-coating. Other wise you'll damage the first coat and waste paint. The metallic paint need more shaking then the others as well, but once it's started it covers just as well as the others.

It works great especially for the newer paints. To test it after buying it, I sprayed epoxy primer (1.8mm tip), base color (1.5mm tip), and urethane clear (1.3mm tip). The gun performed flawlessly. I would suggest you keep a cheap gun for the primer and use this for color/clear, so you don't have cross-contamination from the primer. I use a Husky HVLP (about $50) that works great. I would buy this gun again. I use it on classic Corvettes....

yes. A friend of mine painted his and it looked good and worked fine. One advice is not to give it too many coats of paint .

When I use this on models I have used Reaper acrylics and Freak Flex acrylics. When I finish the model I always use a clear coat spray, either flat or gloss, depending on the model. I always have to use more than one coat of Freak Flex paint, they are pretty thin. So far I haven't had any chipping on them. Hope that helps!

It needs a very smooth black base coat underneath. I tried it on a hammered black finish on metal and it lost almost all colorshift, so I doubt a vinyl color/surface would provide the desired effect. I would also worry about paint cracking.

Hi...this paint will cover it but you will need 3 coats! I did some black mirrors and they came out great!

I agree - almost anything can be painted black - not sure why you would want to - the natural finish I think is very nice

Hi Faye, how widespread is the peeling? Also how many coats of clear coat did you apply? Is the paint exposed or do u have a clear coat left?

Hi,The paint job is pretty good--I would expect it to be fine as long as it didn't stay wet too long. There was a strong chemical smell when it arrived--left it out since then and it's gone now.

It's pretty good though I mounted them traditionally. I'd say that the only concern I have after using them is grabbing the frame causes some wear on the paint. This might be worse mounted sideways.

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

It worked fine for me, but I also used the primer that goes with the paint first and it did a great job. Looks like brand new. I used it for the coping on the top of my pool.

This is stuff is great, you will want to sand the chips out . I used 220 grit sandpaper- for the application I actual sprayed the panels- It looks like factory- This paint will dry very fast - It is hard after a few days- I would not brush it If you want a perfect look- I used two double wet coats -

The original paint is holding up pretty well so far. If you plan to paint over it I would suggest sanding it first.

This product is more like a plastic coating than PAINT. It goes on much thicker then regular spray can paint. It's also a little harder to get a smooth even finish on small stuff. It is a solid color enamel that is pleasing to the eye. Ahhhh, some reflectors are required for safety? Anyway. Spray a scrap piece of plastic or cardboard and put it against the other trim before you paint the real thing... it will not reflect through the paint... But it's not the FLAT black that is popular in our car club.

The paint job varies from one to the next since it includes a wash, which is random by nature. That said, the paint job on mine is great. Sculpting on bicepts and arms is excellent. Take a minute to look at more pics online, there are plenty of them out there. This really is an amazing figure, one of my favorites all-time.

Yes, in fact this is why I got these paints abs have used them w/ success! I did follow up w/ clear Valspar spray paint but before that, the newly paint rocks did fine it the rain.
