I want to spray a very slightly satin coat over a Tamiya base. I do not want dead flat/matt, nor do I want semi-gloss...any suggestions? Advice on thinning and spray pressures would be useful too; thanks

MM has a semi gloss clear cote. You can mix it with an enamel thinner. You may go to 50/50 for example (I went that far). I don't know about the right PSI. Just make sure it passes your airbrush easily.
