I don't shoot a wet coat with anything hot until I've built up a sort of "barrier layer" of several light mist coats and let them dry

No Charlie Pride fans?

Did you enjoy yourself last night dear, how was the show? You know that I don't mind it when you go I understand sometimes we all need time alone but why do you always leave your ring at home?

I have several empty bottles and would be willing to share

Old 2/3oz Pactra RC car paint bottles fit Badger siphon type airbrushes perfectly

Does she have poor circulation?

That would appear to be the case

Thanks for the heads-up, I'm not much into bananas and rarely drink milk but I'll check it out These cramps really seem like a nerve thing- my toes get locked in a painful curled position and a hard spot wells up in the bottom of my foot. If I massage the heck out of the bottom of my foot, my toes eventually release.

You need to get the metal particles pressed down into the carrier before it gets too hard to do so, as you've found out I never wait longer than ~45 minutes The aluminum plate will buff out to the highest shine, but is more finicky and delicate than the stainless steel

I've been getting really painful cramps in my feet

Pretty studly

If you paint the body with lacquer and use enamel for the trim and screw it up, you can clean it off with mineral spirits without harming the body paint

All you need is a space between the multiple exclusions, for example I collect cups made of cow horn but don't want to wade through all the carved yak horn cups from China, or the pointy "viking" or "game of thrones" ones, so I search for "horn cup" -chinese -viking -thrones

I have boxes and boxes of stuff that isn't actually junk, but that I'll probably never use. Some of it is somewhat valuable- like an original radio for a '72 BMW or NOS parts for old turntables and tape recorders

I'm only using Tamiya and (rarely) 3M fine-line tapes these days If I have to mask a large area I use paper and just tape the edges

I had a weird reaction with blue tape and Duplicolor clear, it didn't lift it, it made the surface all puckery- I think it's a chemical reaction with the adhesive

I know exactly what you're feeling my friend, we just lost a pet lovebird we've had for over 20 years- I handfed her from a chick before her eyes opened. She had a stroke over a year ago and I'm surprised she lasted this long, such a bold spirit!

I shoot one coat over either raw, polished plastic or very smooth primer and buff it out initially after about 45 minutes with a cotton swab- If I wait too long the metal particles don't tamp down into the lacquer base properly. I don't try to get it super shiny during this intial buffing, I'm more concerned with flattening the finish at this point. Then I'll go back the next day and do a final buffing with an old T-shirt or cotton sock to a high shine.

This thread is making me thirsty

Or looking for a lost contact lens

The mnemonic for the resistor color code is racist and sexist, at least as it was taught to me

That's funny, I was thinking the same thing only the merrimac

Boy, that's a far cry from the Adams class tin can I was on

Who am I, and why am I here?

I'm glad you agree with Bill
