taaron76 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 My first one since stepping away 20 years ago. I've got lots to learn... I'll get there. I had some yellowing of the decals and keeping the white bright. Windows kicked my butt, too. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbowser Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 You could have picked an easier paint scheme to come back, but you did a nice job with this! Gotta love a TB car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazyglu Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I agree you set the bar kind of high ,but the kit look's great. Old decal's are not easy to work with and white is tricky as well. A black chisel tip sharpie marker works very well for black window trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taaron76 Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 I am buying a few Sharpie's this weekend. Any particular ones better than others? I figured I'd grab a few black a few silver. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krazyglu Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Tim I would recommend the chisel tip, you can hold it at such a angle and use the edge of the marker to drag a real crisp line. You may have to go over it a few time's ,but you will be amazed at how much better than paint it is. I also have a few regular tip's and a silver for picking out detail's such as bolt's. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
