When using alclad, I have a few questions if you could help me please.

1. Once done spraying, do you seal it or leave it as is???

2. When applying decals, can you use solvaset on it without damaging the paint?

3. Are oils ok to use on alclad paint???

Thanks for any help you can give me and have a happy new year.

1. I Gloss Cote after I apply the decals, primarily to protect the decals. Alclad is actually a "metalizer" it's a metal coating not paint.

2. Setting solutions don't hurt it, but clean up any residue before you clear coat.

3. Don't know about oils, but I shouldn't think they would bother it either. You can always test on a spare piece of plastic.

Here is a link to an article about using Alclad. It will answer allof your questions much better than I ever could.
