Default Hangar 9 Spitfire

Hi all,

I have recently purchased a Hanger 9 spitfire and am extremely happy with the plane. However, I would like to add some detailing, and hopefully give the plane a matt finish, rather than the shiny finish as supplied. Does anyone know what I could use to spray the covering with to give a matt finish, which will also be durable?

Many thanks,

M.T.[sm=thumbs_up.gif]

Read over this RCU Discussion thread in regards to the H9 Spit Build, lots of info and ideas, most used a clear flat spray over the shiny Ultra Kote.

Don't miss what normandouellette did with his plane around page 27 - 29

I copied what he did with the gear, retracts, exhaust, engine install, etc. thanks to that thread. Great info there.
