First off, let me apologise in advance if this has been asked elsewhere on the forum but a search yielded no results.
I'm getting horrible metallic paint pecks appear all over my minis and it's ruining them. How can I stop this?
Admittedly I have a stored them all loose in a box a couple of times but I'm afraid that even when I've got proper storage this is going to happen as the metallic parts rub against the foam.
Does anybody have any advice. Thanks all.

I don't clean my brushes well enough and this is a habit I should change but I don't think this is the cause as the models look fine on my desk until I move them, I think the cause is specks transferring from one mini to another.
It's where the metallic paint is coming off of back packs etc and depositing onto clean minis. I use clean water and my paints aren't contaminated. I'm hoping that if I keep them clean until I'm ready to varnish I'll be ok
