gold ribbon decals and clear coating

Post by nicholassagan »

so i've got a little project near completion that has gold ribbon decals on it.
they are REALLY nice and shiny, i mean this thing is all blinged-out.
but since i didnt clear coat the model BEFORE applying the gold ribbon decals, if i did semi-gloss or flat, will the top clear coat seriously effect the luster?

i know clear coating really effects how metal paints look, but never tried it on gold ribbon decals. but i do have a spare few bits i can test...
