I use Testors Dullcoat on my N scale structures and don't worry about the windows. Actually, it's more a case of I don't think about the windows, I just haul out the can and spray. I figure if the windows get frosted, it will just prevent anyone from peering in and seeing the empty interior. Actually, to tell the truth, I don't notice much difference in the dullness after spraying. Maybe two coats? It would be best to do the painting and the Dullcoat spraying on the parts before assembly, but when I open the box I get excited and anxious to assemble it. Patience is not one of my virtures.

Tape them up, vasoline (is that is spelled right), play-doh, and I am sure I am forgetting a few. Those will cover up windows, and spray away.

I apply the dull coat before the windows are added to prevent "frosting" them over. I prefer to use the Testors or Micromark window stuff anyway and the dullcoat will melt them away if sprayed over them. J.R.
I am in the process of building several structures in N scale. After I am finished with one, I like to give a coat of Dul-coat and am wondering if any of you do this and if so, what do you do about the windows? So far I have either simply sprayed over the windows, if they are small, and have been able to work around the larger ones. What are your "tips or suggestions" on the matter? Thank You. Mike
