  2. Paint booth question

    dragstk replied to Ro3bert's topic in General

    I have that exact spray booth. I have a (semi) permanent spot for ot, so I hard lined the exhaust to the window. I also duct taped all the corners. It makes it a little stable. I cover the inside with paper and change it before spaying any bodies Ive been using it for about 2 years now, spraying lacquer, enamel and acrylic. I am completely satisfied with it

  4. This is a great looking truck, very realistic. I also enjoy the longer descriptions of the build. I learn a lot from them. Thanks for sharing

  7. Liberty Walk R35 GTR .

    dragstk replied to Silver Foxx's topic in Under Glass

    The Liberty Walk cars seem to have a love/hate relationship with car guys. I really like them. And I really like your version. I think it looks good without all the lettering you see on a lot of the real cars. Nice job!

  12. Paint to thin

    dragstk replied to dragstk's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    I did shake the can for a minute or so, I also warmed the can in hot water for a couple of minutes, then shook it again. (this is my normal practice) I did this both when I was trying to spray from the rattle can and before decanting. I suspect that this is just a bad can of paint, as I have never seen this happen before. Im just trying to find a way to use the paint

  13. Paint to thin

    dragstk replied to dragstk's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    I sprayed it as thin as I possible could. The first coat barely colored the parts and yet it just ran down the edges. Ive never seen paint this thin
  14. I like the way it looks now. Thats a great patina look

  15. Paint to thin

    dragstk replied to dragstk's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    You learn something new every day, sometimes its actually useful I didnt know the skin would dissolve back to paint Thank you

  16. Paint to thin

    dragstk replied to dragstk's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers

    I thought about that but I was worried that the paint would "skin" or get chunks in it. Thanks for the help, Bill
