  23. so now and than i work on this mack i have first pe steps but i don,t like it when the are on the fueltank,s so take them af and repaint the tank,s and make step,s from plastic i work now slowly because i have a lot of trubble,s with my back [ how cal you guy,s worn out or so ] and there is nothing to do on it said the specialist from the hospital picture,s and so i work slowly and also other projects and like it to finishd these old truck,s jacobus
  24. here in holland we have someone how have do that work on a daf [ 1960 old truck ] he said its a lot of work to get this smooth because its nylon and very hard , not fine to sandit like the normal kits material , he have put a couple of primers on and sand it and than again primer before its smooth and and good to put the paint on the material its self is hard and its difficult to get it nice because its poraus and small wels [ if i say it right ] i have some 3d printed wheels and the are nice for tyre,s because the its like a surface thats normal for a tyre for cab,s and more i dont like it [ but thats my opinion ] to much work for a nice build before you have a result you can not work with it like you do for a normal kit ore resin jacobus
