this is another of my custom made car model bodies which i made in my slicer program using itman3d's 69 daytona 3d printable kit's wing and hood and nose cone and tail lights merged with andrey bezrodny's 2022 dodge charger daytona ev concept car body i also merged the roof glass pattern to the roof the the car to make it a full hardtop i also merged a pair of magnaflow exhaust tips that were free to download on cults3d i painted the body rust oleum wheel high performance 3x metallic graphite i upscaled a set of classic mag rims to fit a set of modern tires i painted both the tires and rims rust oleum 2x flat black primer i brush painted the interior apple barrel matte pavement acrylic paint i brush painted the dash lcd screens apple barrel gloss black acrylic paint i brush painted the tail lights apple barrel gloss real red acrylic paint i painted the spokes and center cap and rim barrels and window trim and exhaust tips and interior trim and shifter with a apple barrel metallic silver ultra fine tip acrylic paint pen i used parts of a red mpc 69 charger daytona stripe on both sides of the rear quarters below the wing 2027 dodge charger Daytona custom.mp4

I have no issues with whatever paint a model builder chooses to use either the main reason I am not a fan of tamiya is the cost to size/amount you get most of the time I find tamiya paint is the same price as a can of rust oleum 2x gloss or matte paint and clears and primers but tamiya has way way less paint due to the size of the cans then the similar price rust oleum cans so why would I spend the same and get less when I get far more paint jobs out of the rust oleum cans

rust oleum 2x paints and primers and clears as well as rust oleum bright coat and rust oleum wheel and rust oleum metallic and rust oleum universal are pretty much the only paints i use when painting plastic car/truck/suv bodies and bumpers and rims and engines and chassis and interiors and resin printed car/truck/suv bodies bumpers rims tires chassis the only time i run into issues with it is if the humidity is higher then what it says on the can or the temp is above or below the temps stated on the can and that happens very rarely cause i call the weather now service for my town to find out the temp and the humidity and the only other time i have issues is if very fine layer of dust i cant see ends up on the parts between the primer stage and paint stage or the paint and clear coat stage cause the weather gets bad ie rain between the two stages and i can't get the paint or the clear stage done for a few days to a week but again that does not happen often
