Scale-Master Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Do we need a sub-category for all the old '69 Camaro's getting "back on the road" to completion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemodeler Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 LOL! I have one from at least 14 years ago that needs to be done- funny thing is that about 60 minutes at the bench and it would be finished! Oh well, maybe tomorrow, maybe not! I have done about 3 or 4 of the Revell snap 69 Camaros but can't get that one glue kit finished and am glad I am not alone in my inability to complete it.

Casey Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Use some 600 then 800 grit wet sandpaper and remove any chrome plating, then detail paint as you normally would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
