lol i was well prepared i also alloted myself time for surprises which i was surprised cause usually something always pops up at the worst time, youd probably quit if i didnt say it was sprayed with testors enamels except the clear

Beautiful Chevy Gasser! And in that short time...WOW!!! My hat is off. Really like the paint job, color is excellent too and flames give nice finishing touch. Cool to see Six Cylinder Gassers also.

Un-freaking-believable Frank, 8 Hours and Testors paint? And it looks that good? Yeah, you're some kind of mutant, ain't ya?
Awesome work my man, I need some of that build-speed to knock a hole in my stash!

Are you a time-traveler? That is amazing! Getting the paint to dry that fast is amazing, what did you use? I'm thinking airbrush, lacquer thinner, dehydrator. Am I close? Looks great too! Nice job.

thanks guys, yes i used a dehydrator i used urethane reducer as it cuts drying time down to 3 hours, I also used a waterbase clear to seal it for the urethane clear afterwards the little step blends the decals right into the paint.
i also only managed to use 1 bottle to paint the whole car with 2 coats.
