Are you referring to Dull Coat and Gloss Coat from Testors? I believe those are lacquer based.BlackSheep214 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2024 7:34 am My usual go-to clears, both flat and gloss is Testors in the big bottles - both enamel based. I also have flat and semi-gloss acrylic clears in Pollyscale. (or is it Aeromaster? I can't recall)

Yes sir. Nope, both are enamels. Got them at Hobby Lobby.

Re: Tamiya Flat Base?
Well, I see they've dropped the word "lacquer" from their label. I wonder when that changed? I quit using that stuff 30 years ago, I guess. The only thing I have left from those days is one bottle that says Glosscoat Lacquer on the label. Directions on back have this in bold: Clean brushes with Testors Lacquer Brush cleaner ONLY. Hmmm... 


Ah, the days before a barcode...
