A hot damp cloth will make the decal conform instantly with no wrinkles. All the blue around the back of this Ford Focus WRC car was decal and done with this technique. .

Alcohol or Ammonia

Great choice of airbrush. I love mine it is a real workhorse.

I know the decals are Cartograf and are very good decals but how can you say they are the "highest quality decals ever offered in model kit" when everybody is using Cartograf. I have some of the new Beemax kits and they have some of the best decals I have ever seen. The gold foil disks to be used in in the Warsteiner markings on the BMW M3 are the best foil decal I have seen. I thought they were peel and stick foil.

This live right now. Aston Martin, Ferrari breadvan and other great sports cars from the past. This event runs all weekend. Lemans Classic

Here is a very interesting Ford video for the car. Pay close attention to the digs at Ferrari. Ford GT

I will get one too. It is a very historically significant car.

I am always glad to here what he is not getting or does not have, it really contributes allot to the thread.

Most likely a Humbrol color. Check this conversion chart Conversion Chart

Nice build. Next time the paint fogs up let dry and polish the haze off. It will shine up.

Another good one is 8 meters which is about the dead heat finish that was ordered by Ford but was not allowed by the race organizers. Ken Miles should have been the 1966 winner. 8 Meters

This is nice Miura SVR click on the picture to see more pictures

Finished. Belkits 2011 Ford Fiesta WRC. There is allot of problems with kit and I probably will not buy anymore of their kits. Decals are too thick and do not conform well which causes creases that once cut will not lay down. There is no decal guide, some parts do not look like they do in the instruction. One bad mistake is the shocks have round peg that is to put into a D shape hole in the uprights. The tires melt plastic and paint.

Velocity channel coverage starts at 8:00 AM Saturday. They are showing the entire 24hrs.

The race starts at 9:00 AM EST on Saturday. It's on the Velocity Channel. The International internet feed is Geo Blocked in the US and Canada so you would need a VPN or use some of the risky sites I use on the net which I have learned how to beat them.

It will dissolve the acrylic and make it run. I have used the semi-gloss TS79 but only very light coats with an airbrush. You need wet coats to get a good gloss. I do not use acrylics for bodies especially cars that need allot decals applied, they just are not as sturdy as lacquers and enamels.

Looking good to me Porsche at Lemans

Love it. Here is a another Kammbach design the Ford J car

It's actually Formula 560 canopy glue made by Pacer(Zap a Gap). I find it stronger than other white glues and I use it for allot more than clear parts.

On the planet starts this week ,the Isle of Mann TT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lilIQ2vCiUQ

Take a look at Studio 27 decals, they make very good decals and most of theirs are done by Cartograf .

Maybe some might like this one better. The Bugatti Vision GT. 1600bhp for a mere 8 milion dollars.

It also has gullwing doors. I'm over 60 and I like it.

This car the Apollo IE makes a Lamboghini look kind of plain. It has a Ferrari V12 and is built in Germany. Cost is a mere 2.7 million. It would make a great Batmobile. The video is from Monaco yesterday. Apollo IE
