  Ensure surfaces are clean and primed before painting. Apply paint in thin, even coats to avoid runs or thick textures. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next.

For more specific issues, refer to the detailed instructions provided with your physical model kit or consult online modeling communities for advice.
