Has anyone had experience with both of these paints:

Testor's Model Master Clear (red, etc)



and

Tamiya Clear (red, etc).



I know that the Tamiya is a very popular choice, and I'd love to get some....but nobody around here in BFE, IA, sells it. Hobby Lobby (about 40min away) carries Model Master stuff, I know.

So I am curious as to whether or not they're comparable in performance.

Thanks!

Never tried Testors but from the looks of the pics it appears to be a normal color while the tamiya paint has more of a wash like substance. If you want to see how tamiya clear red looks take a look at the fw
chaos reaver titan and brass scorpion otherwise try Google it.

I bought my Tamiya form hobby craft.
