RE: Show me your best Latex vs Urethane
I'm planning on using latex on a Balsa Nieuport 28 I will be building. Can you share some details with us on using latex? Prep, primer, masking, clearcoat, etc..

I am the builder and pilot of the Sea Fury you're looking at. It is glassed and primed with
a hi-build automotive primer which works well for panel lines and rivets...I doubt it would
work for a cloth-covered aircraft. The Latex went on beautifully with an HVLP touchup gun
at around 40psi. I am an airbrush artist of over 15 years experience but this was my first
painted 3-dimensional object. Masking was 3M tape from an automotive paint supply and
I decided to clearcoat/fuelproof with Lustrekote flat clear..
