Claude Thibodeau Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hi RRR! All are great, but I can't help notice that, like yours truly, you have a soft spot for the 53 Stude! Can't argue with that! Bravo! CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne- thanks for your kind words. I use Minwax Polyurethane clear gloss. I shoot it through my airbrush. The advantage to this clear enamel is that it won't craze decals as many lacquers will and since it's enamel it can be applied over any paints. It is 'self-leveling' and lays down real smooth. I'm told it can take a buff and polish, but I never do that so I don't have any first-hand knowledge of that. The disadvantage is that it will never get as hard as lacquer will, so one has to be careful handling your parts once they're dry. I clamped parts together once cleared and the clamp left marks. Just be careful. A 1/2 pint can is about $6.00 at Lowes. I don't think Home Depot carries it. -RRR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David G. Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Each one is fantastic and such a great variety. The Funny Car Bug is probably my favorite, I think I remember your WIP on this one. David G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavanzer Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Is that 'Salinas Special" a resin kit? It is awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisc63 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Love the green on "Mr.Speed", but all look really good. Excellent model building. Hows about posting links to the WIP threads when you post several pieces like this? Not just you, I think it would be a good idea in general!
