Scalper Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Had some problems with the paint. The wind caught some of the spray and made some spots/drip Marks Hopefully it will be able to fix. Any advise and any comments welcomed . Thanks for looking.

Scalper Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Thanks Cranky. Any tips on how to fix the paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Sand it lightly with 1500 grade with water and a little soap--very gently--and then respray another coat. That should do it, I hope. Keep me posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalper Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hey Greg from Van .. the colour I am using is model master Citrus Yellow Metallic rattle can .. Not an easy paint to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gman Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Hey Greg from Van .. the colour I am using is model master Citrus Yellow Metallic rattle can .. Not an easy paint to use I have a can of that somewhere...it looks beautiful on the car. Is coverage the problem or the way it sprays from the nozzle? Maybe a candidate for decanting and spraying through an airbrush? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsc Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I love this car!! You are doing a super job! Did the white walls come in the kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalper Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 Hey Greg could just be the nozzle. but not sure. after I sprayed a few passes it would bubble like crazy from the nozzle then would have to wipe it clean then do another pass. and sometimes nothing came our or it would spit was very tricky to get a nice coat on.. John yes the white walll came with the kit 2 peice. had to glue the white part on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalper Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Well just pulled her out from the box. Needs a little dusting and lots of BMF. Lots of dusting. Thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenGuthmiller Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 That color reminds me of the '58 Plymouth that I built. Mine is painted off white with a sort of gold-green top & interior. Keep up the good work Andre! Looking good so far! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
