<p>Ive been hand painting for over 30 years. I started off with the classic tiny glass bottles of blob makers and worked my way to Tamiya paints that were just the best.</p><p>I tried a bottle of Badger Model Flex Paint this week with a redstable brush of different sizes. The brushes were ok but after the second building was finished I was surprised at how much the brush appeared torn up or frayed. Maybe Im using brushes past thier effective lifespan but it is amazing.</p><p>A second mystery is that the plastic peices seem to refuse the paint and pool it away from certain spots requiring a second coat to get it.</p><p>A third mystery is it does not seem to clean very well with water if left on for more than a few minutes. Ive taken to keeping a dish of water and throwing the different brushes into it when it's part in the overall painting is done.</p><p>I think I post here because I get the feeling Im playing with Airbrush paint with a brush and should stick with Tamiya instead.</p><p>What do you think? It's a nice color and would hate to subistute it.</p>
