Ran into a problem putting on the clear coat to night.

I ended up with a couple of black smudges and I think it was my glove. Should have used a clean glove.

The wing is less of an issue then the fuselage. It is Testors Aluminum paint. The Fuselage is the Alclad. Well see how the fixes go as this has come to far to be snatched from victory by the jaws of defeat.

Well I called it done. The Alclads are great, but, if your not used to working with this lacquer then there is a learning curve. My problem cam in with the Klear coat. It is also lacquer and any place I touched while it was not dry, it took off all the original down to the base coat, This also included the enamel paint. Some soft sanding and rough masking worked to fix most of it. I'll be using again but remembering what I've learned. It's no show stopper but it is a learner.
