Mike 1017 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I have seen a lot of guys ask "I have screwed up my paint job" "Now what do I do?" IMO these Speed Shapes are the best to practice and experiment on. Better to screw one of these up than a body that you have painstakingly working on. I got a bunch off of Amazon $2.00- $3.00 a piece. I have only seen them in black and white. Mike '\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Good info. That's about the size of a 1/25 car. One of our paint suppliers used to give me all I wanted, but with cost trimming everywhere, no more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainford Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Hhmmm, interesting. Is the intended purpose of these things for paint sampling, or were they originally marketed for something else? EDIT: Never mind, I just went to amazon and checked them out. Never knew these existed. Edited February 1, 2022 by Bainford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 If you visit Alclad's website, they use those to showcase some of their paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike 1017 Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 You gotta pay attention to dimensions . Some are small and used to sample colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straightliner59 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I'm not that into painting! I can see where they might be useful, if that's your thing, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
