doll punk!

Question for the doll people (or, those of you who paint things, at least)... What's your currently preferred sealant, and where do you get it?

The can of MSC I've got is coming out all flakey, and I actually am pretty sure it went bad quite some time ago, if not before I got it, and the only thing I seem to be able to find around here is Testors dullcoat. So of course now is the time (oh, and it's cold and raining, too) that I want to paint stripes on my centaur and do something exciting to Miss Beryl's "new" hands...

MSC is still my favorite, but I've been using Zoukeimura Finishing Powder Spray from volksusa for it's price and availability. It's nice enough despite distinct difference in texture from MSC. I've used testors and really don't like it. It's yellowy and the grit in it is fairly large compared to the other two.

Thanks! Can you describe the texture difference between the Zouk-whatsit & the MSC? (Or is it just "this is nicer"?)

I don't mind testors too much for some things, but it's kind of been the designated "not for dolls" sealant.

It's more of a this is nicer thing. They're very similar in texture but MSC feels a little smoother. I've been content with the Zouk spray.

Ok-- thanks!
