Dear all, I would like to ask when is the correct timing to apply satin (or semi) gloss to my AFV? Is it right after my base coat and decal and before my weathering process (wash, chipping, etc.)? Thank you!

Usually I follow this general sequence

1. Base coat and detail works
2. SATIN COAT
3. Decals
4. SATIN COAT on the decals
5. Weathering
