In Topic: 1958 Corvette Snowcrest White---White white or Ivory?

17 June 2013 - 03:46 AM

This may not apply, but something to think about. When trying to model my 1:1 truck (Colonial White), I found a paint that matched the 1:1 perfectly. When I sprayed it on the model, however, it looked much too dark and "yellow". I ended up using a whiter white and the model looks much more like the real truck.

How many of you have NOT glued your fingers together with Super Glue? I've done it several times. I'm sure glad there's debonder!

How big is my work table? Exactly the same size as my kitchen table, if you get my drift. :D

I use 0000 steel wool to rub the shine off of tires.


In Topic: Tip - Dispensing Liquids

For small amounts, like for thinning paint, use a real pipette, like we did in chemistry lab. Stick one end of a piece of rigid tubing into the liquid you want to transfer. Put your finger over the open end. Move the tube where you want the liquid to go, and release your finger. The further you stick the tube into the liquid, the more it will hold. I use a left over piece of aluminum tubing. Lasts forever!
