Default That nice marble look to your helmets

Something RaiderMike shared with me a long time ago:

When I was at Buzzfest, I had a lot of comments about the nice shine on the SMU helmets. Here's what I do:

I put a regular spray coat on my figures.
Then I brush on a delta ceramcoat gloss on the helmets only
From there I put on Treasure Crystal Cote on the helmets only

It is important to put a first coat of brush gloss on before the Treasure. Or some guys use Modge Podge before. That's fine too. If you don't put that down, Treasure Cote will eat your decals. It will also eat your brush so don't plan on using a great one.

Once the Treasure Crystal Cote is on, you'll notice a very nice marble look to the helmet. Looks especially good on white.

Here's a link to buy Treasure Crystal Cote:

Treasure Crystal Cote eats decals, eh? Sounds like my kind of stuff!
