I personally use this paint for three different jobs. One is to make it look like you have working wipers, by masking off windscreen wiper areas on the windscreen and spraying this to the rest of the windscreen (looks great!). Second is to flatten down the glossy shiny effect of the lexan by spraying the exterior of the lexan after painting the interior. The third is to give the lexan a base coat, so I can then use acrylic paints and paints not compatible with lexan to add fine detail etc... Probably the most versatile spray paint there is!

If this is used on the outside of the body is it safe to spray over decals?
Si Nash / 4th October 2021

Yes this will be fine , do a thin coat first then build up the laters so the decal does not crease or shrink.

I would like to ask you if it's better to paint with ps 55 on the inside before the base color or on the outside of the body after the base color?
Avgerinos Dimakopoulos / 24th January 2021

All PS paints should normally be applied on the inside.

You can use PS-55 on the outside to provide a matt effect though if you wish
