Lifecolor Acrylics and Micro-sol

[davieb]

Hi all 

Just found out the hard way
Don't use Micro-Sol on un-varnished Lifecolor acrylic paint 
It acts just like paint stripper  :'(  :'(

i had forgotten to apply a layer of varnish to the paint before applying some decals
and the Micro-Sol caused the paint to bubble and lift 

I just hope this post will prevent someone else having the same problem

Not good to hear Dave, I hope you can rectify the situation without too much hassle.

thanks for letting everyone know 

cheers John.

I should be able to sort things out without resorting to a strip down of the paintwork
and re-paint 

Anyway it was on a 009 Loco for my Father 
It has been a nightmare of a kit from beginning to end hopefully this will be the last problem 

Or it's going in the fish tank as a Loco that went off the end of the jetty
