    i ma not familiar with that type of clear,does it use a hardner? i had the same situaton with MCW enamel clear,and hardner its a 1k type clear with no hardner, but i mixed some hardner into it and it took months to dry (i do not use a dehydrator),it may have been the hardner was too old and expired?

    No hardener It may be a 1k clear.

    You’re saying that Molotow can be handled without leaving marks on it if it is dry enough? What do you spray it over…primer…base coat?

    Yes. I spay it over bare plastic, primer, basecoat and really anything. I posted pictures of my fingers holding a T-Bird door panel that I sprayed with it. The other picture shows no residue or smears on my finger or the part. I will do it again and post my results.

    Good Luck

    I have not had much luck with the markers. I bought a 30ml refill that I intended to spray through my airbrush, but haven’t gotten around to it yet. I think the trick is to get one heavy coat on that “flows out”…then don’t touch it. Some people like them but I’m not a big fan.

    I have airbrushed and I have had good results. One heavy coat does the trick. I put the painted into my dehydrator which dries it out so it can be handled with no problems. Also, Molotov is ink not paint

    Good evening, this is my first post on the forum. I want to build a 73/74 Challenger. This was the last of the first generation and is forgotten (some say that's a good thing) either way they're still meat to me. The car I wanna do is what I'd call the 'Grandpa Special.' You can see what I mean by that with the green car pictured in the Dodge brochure. I plan on using the ARII kit to start with, it seems very toyish so I'm wondering if there is a better way (it has to be cheap, I'm a broke college student) I also need a source for a 318 LA and the hubcaps seen on this car. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
