I already sealed my model with Future acylic, but I forgot about useing my wash for panel lines. I was about to go over with a coat of gloss laquer, but I/m not sure of the laquer to thinner ratio. Does anyone know, or if you even need to thin it to use in an airbrush?
thanks

It does need to be thinned, but I have found it doesn't need a heck of a lot. Maybe one third thinner and two thirds lacquer.
