  1. Snake Hello. I used the yellow E-O. Put the body hood and bumpers in a large rectangular Tupperware with a snap lid. I'm attempting to remove The Rustoleum paint and primer in one paint (2 coats) maybe the second shot will do the trick. Hopefully.
  2. Thanks Stan No pitting or scarring of the body ( of the car )??
  3. Okay building a Monogram 1991 Davey Allison Havoline T Bird. Sprayed 2 coats of Rustoleum Gloss Black Paint and Primer on her. Got a definite haziness so put Easy Off on her to strip her last night. This morning took her out scrubbed and rinsed her. Paint didn't budge. She's in her 2nd application of EO. Getting concerned (insert panicky here) that I have effed the body up. Anyone with suggestions I'd certainly appreciate it. Thanks Jerry
  4. Mark be careful. It hazed on me and looked suspect. So I decided to strip it and start over so I'm on my 2nd Easy Off coating ( the first time around didn't lift the paint/primer I put 2 coats) sprayed the Easy Off again this morning. I got some pitting it appears. Hoping I didnt EFF it up or I'll be sicker over it more than I am now. Gloss black is a pain in the caboose I really didn't need. I should've listened to the expert modelers.
  5. Rustoleum I'm using is paint & primer in one.
  6. Thanks I'll let you know. If Mr. Humidity cooperates tonight I'll lay down the gloss black.
  7. Not bad for my 1st attempt.
  8. Very nice job. I'm in the process of doing a Kyle Petty Gran Prix and a Davey Allison Thunderbird using the Rustoleum 2x paints. Very impressed with the result.
  9. Hey all It has arrived today. 1991 Davey Allison Havoline Thunderbird. I have been advised not to use the kit decals. Instead use the Powerslide set. Thoughts on where to get Powerslide decals as I have seen them but they're expensive. Thanks Jerry
  10. Mornin' all Quick question. I've started working on my Kyle Petty #42 Peak Grand Prix. The nose is part blue. My question is what is the best way to tape it off. Full Tamiya masking tape or a blend of the Tamiya and another tape (3M perhaps)? Stroker Ace has done this car before so perhaps he can shed some light? Thanks Jerry
  11. Thanks all for the positive feedback.
  12. Thanks a lot. I had fun building it.
  13. Camaro glass in place and interior done.
  14. Very very nice job.
  15. Hey Stroker I have a couple of questions. Where did you purchase the paints from? Airbrushed or rattle cans? Jerry
  16. Hi everyone, Hope all are well. Haven't posted anything car wise since maybe June. I am in the midst of building my GS, Camaro, Boss 429, and my 6 pack Bee. Put those on the side for about a month. In the past month I have completed a Revell Snap Pete 359, and a Revell Snap KW W900. Have started the paint on an AMT Ford LN8000 Short Hauler which I intend to make into a LNT 8000 dual drive tractor and have a car carrier trailer I got as a gift. That being said I am looking forward to completing all my kits by late Sept mid Oct. I will post pictures as I complete them. In addition I just ordered a 1990 Grand Prix which I intend to make a Kyle Petty Peak Winston Cup car. All this in the midst of turning 55 last month. Who says you can't have fun during a mid life crisis. Jerry
  17. Really nice builds.
