Subject: Best time to apply a wash?
Hey all: I'm in the process of repainting my Gauntlet II APCs and I was wondering, when would you apply a wash to the vehicle? I intend on using a coat of future floor wax to gloss coat it before putting decals on it. Would you put the wash after the decals go on and a second gloss coat added, or at some point before? Later,
