3D printed models

I’m new to the world of 3D printed models. I have a couple of questions:

2) Do they sand well? Or will it require a course sand paper?

Thanks

So much for May. The primmer has been missing for over a year now and now their Acrylic paints are all but gone too. WTF! Anyone know anything else or heard anything?

Metalizers and Acrylics

Question about using Testors metalizer sealers

1: will it harm an Acrylic paint undercoat?

2: Will it give said Acyric paint that is flat, a metalic finish.

I'm totally new to using metalizers and not sure how to use them.
