martinfan5 Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 That's better than Junior, too many of those out there already Good point, I really dont want to be called Jr. for many reason's So I had a duh moment, I painted the chassis the wrong color, the kodak cars had black chassis not gray, so instead of painting over a perfectly good gray painted chassis, I switching chassis with a lumina kit out of the stash so I can paint this one black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Started decaling the body then I remembered I need to paint the inside black , so I am not sure how I am going to go about getting it painting, I guess I could brush paint it, or clear coat the body then mask it off and spray paint it' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbowser Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) Looking good. If it was me I would use a 1/2" brush and brush paint the inside, you can barely see in there anyway and flat black goes on pretty easily. I've learned over the years to paint the interior of the body first thing before I do any outside prep. It's easily touched up after the bodywork and paint is done.

Bruce, thats what I did, used a brush, now the funny thing, I did paint the inside of the body first, the wrong color just like I did with the chassis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
