To prime, or not to prime, that is the question
64SS350 replied to Kaenned's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I realize you asked about painting on molded in color, but here's an example from several years ago. I decided to pull out a stalled project because of paint and decal issues. Tamiya paint, no primer, also some sanding. -

Quick update, I looked over the truck bed and decided I didn't like it, so here we go. For starters, I'm changing the bed floor to real wood and adding the rails next, after I made a bit of tooling make them. Also the sides are incorrect, they are not flat, but angle out to the bedside. I scribed them and waited to finish until I got the floor ready. I also added a gas tank and have to reroute the exhaust , that in the next update. -

Jim Heller on eBay has a wide variety of racing decals, I have personally not used them yet, but you can check their feedback.

Similar curiosity, I have some ... black chrome BMF. -
I know what you mean, I just got an orbital sander yesterday packaged the same way, and looks as bad! To add, the Amazon facility is literally 5-7 minutes from my house.
