Thanks guys. I've got her up on its undercarriage now and have applied a gloss coat ready for decaling. For some reason the gloss coat went all white and chalky. After the initial panic a few more coats were applied which managed to cover it all up, why would this happen?? I use Humbrol gloss coat which I've used on my last four or five models and never experienced this before, I haven't changed anything in regards to paint types and brands. The centre canopy section has suffered unfortunately as there is a "patch" of fogged, almost scuffed looking plastic that I haven't been able to polish out. A few extra coats of clear gloss as improved it a bit, so I might add some more in the morning and see how it goes.
