Never done that but have used Tamiya Polish on a few kits made from coloured plastic with great results, sometimes its an easy way to build without the hassle of paint......do whatever you feel works for you. *NM*

I just read in a contest annual where a builder simply coated his colored plastic body with pledge. Any thoughts? *NM*
- I did that once. The body came out great, it's beautiful. *NM*
- Sorry, I was thinking Future. I coated a color plastic body Future and it came out great. *NM*
  - Probably the same thing.... At some point Future was rebranded as *Pledge With Future Shine* *NM*
- So, has anybody ever airbrushed Future/Pledge? If, how?? *NM*
  - Lots of online and published articles on how to. Although I prefer the Tamiya clears instead if I want an acrylic product. Just a thought. *NM*
  - Yes, and it is easy, my preferred method for application
    - Post Scrpt - a few years after building some hardbody slot cars and clear coating with future to protect the decals, I hit the bodies with some Meguiar's #6 and they shined up like new pennies *NM*
