Howdy partners! 🤠

I've been working on a set of ecto goggles for a week or so now between other obligations. It was a 3D printed body that I sanded, filled, primed, sanded, re-primed, and then finished with a few wet sanded layers of the tamiya olive drab that everyone loves. My questions are:

1 - Is there a specific clear/protective coat you'd recommend for tamiya spray paints? I ultimately just want to shield/protect from chips, scratches, etc.

2 - I got a metallic decal set for the goggles, and I was wondering whether or not y'all are putting a sealant of some sort over the decals to keep them protected and in place.

3 - Is there any established "go-to" for the face padding around the edge of the body?

This has been my first rodeo with a 3D printed piece (it's all been resin casts and fiberglass pulls prior to this), so I'm being a little extra cautious and measuring twice where it feels necessary.

Cheers! I'll post pics when I'm closer to finishing.

    That's a tiny bit of scratch for a poor product.
