I'm sorry this isn't warhammer related, but I sprayed an M4 tank with some grey seer and it's all gone horrible wrong.

 

Cold windy day and the paints run in places, and as it's dried, cracked in others.

I think the best thing to do is just start again.

 

Are the spray cans acrylic paint? Can anyone recommend a good product to remove it?

Sorry, just got back home, calmed down a bit now! I don't know if I'm breaking any rules by posting this, so sorry in advance, pretend it's a Predator tank :tongue.:

It's not as bad as I 1st though, pretty sure I can just cover up the rough patch on the back with some accessories. Learned a vaulable lesson about using spray cans in the winter...

As has been mentioned, some of the WW2 kits will have a texture on them to represent the rough casting or texture imparted during the production of rolled steel - I can't really see from the photos, but could it be that?

 

Otherwise, +1 on the IPA and toothbrush (preferably a nice soft old one) if it's a hard plastic kit like GW's are (e.g. Tamiya) - just dip the toothbrush in the iPA and lightly scrub. I've never used Biostrip 20, but have heard good things about it, too :)
