My only guess would be, TS line are lacquer paints, that's the reason why they dry fast. And Lacquer is known to melt plastic. I've actually tried to strip paint back then, stole some industrial grade lacquer thinner and dipped that part in it. After sometime, it melted the plastic, but that didn't happen until I mixed it, LOL!

Yeah, no paint. Lacquer based? How about Mr. Hobby top coat then? Is it the same? I'd like some topcoat that doesn't destroy my models.
Do you guys know a few good modelling boards where I could ask around? I need to know for sure if I just made a mistake or if I should use another top coat. It was pretty cold outside. Could that be the reason?
