There is a slight rastering of the windows that has been throwing me off. The windows are also very shallow, so getting paint thick enough to fill the raster lines but thin enough not to spill onto the window frames is very hard.
Here is a quick list of what I tried:
1. Clear gloss on the windows - did not affect the rastering
2. Clear coat whole model - dulled some details around the windshield, blended the windows with the frames
3. Tamiya Acrylic primer - would not stick to clear resin
4. Dark gray laquer primer - too dark for yellow finish coat, raster lines stil visible, dark gray windows to even.
5. Yellow first - model was translucent, window frames too small to mask, raster lines visible on windows.
My next attempt will be a medium gray gloss laquer. I will then mask the windows and spray several layers of yellow to build up the window frames, then apply a black wash on the windows followed by a gloss coat, mask the windows again and finish the model with a semi gloss clear coat. If this does not work, I'm throwing in the towel.
