  1. I couldn't find much in the search but anybody have any experiance with FusionFirm Chrome paint ? In the video I did find it stated the clear coat was like Alclad Auqa Klear. The gold did not do so well as to shine
  2. On todays news there was a story about local Hobby/Toys shops closing due to higher cost that included upcoming (?) tariffs. Just wondering about how this will effect our hobby in the near future ? Thoughts ?
  3. Not to odd after owning a onedoor. And it is on the front.
  4. Very good info there. I have 2 Iwatas , NEO & Eclipse, 2 Badger Patriots and a Passche H with a #3 tip. I normal use MCW lacquer or Createx Candy20 on 1/2th cars. My thoughts are with the larger paint surfaces do I need to use something larger ?
  5. For those that paint LARGE SCALE, what size airbrush (or spray gun) do you recommend ?
  6. Mail Call: Another step down the large scale Rabbit Hole
  7. Personally I would like to close this thread
  8. Yes the original post was a simple question that only required a simple answer with minimal explanation.
  9. I think I feel disrespected. Glad there so many forum experts on here to keep us clueless in line
  10. Mine was the Revell Roth Outlaw in 1963. It turned out so bad I am surprised I didn't give up on the hobby right then and there. I have a few of the Outlaw kits in my stash by haven't brought myself to build one LOL
  11. Thanks for all the insightful answers. I think my question has been answered. Thanks again for all the responses
  12. Has this ever been considered ?
  13. I like the Cragars but also the Ansens
  14. I checked them out. My pockets are not deep enough for them
  15. I have a Golden T and it has a lot of Gold Chrome. What would be the best way to change it to regular chrome ? The only thing I can think off is stripping it and using Alclad on it but it really falls short of looking like real chrome, especially on a 1/8th scale Rod.
  16. I have decided to use the pullies from the kit .
  17. That is what I may need to do
  18. Any place carry 1/8th scale Engine Pullies ? Some resin parts do not do well in shipping.
  19. Being new to Large scale I bought a 1/8th Golden T kit off Ebay. (not this one,) Turns out it is a Double kit. Box contained two of everything.
  20. My interests are hot Rods, So far I have 1/16 Lindberg Serpent and Bull Horn T and the Revell 34 Phaeton and 34 3 window coupe . I have been watching the 1/8 Golden T on ebay but not sure of the price at $270, nothing to compare it with. I have been buying the engines from Texas 3D customs and tires and wheels from 3D Scale Parts. Are these the only sources of aftermarket parts ? I never build anything out of the box. So far I haven't paid over $40 for a kit
  21. Any preferred places to buy large scale kits and aftermarket parts.?
  22. Movie car from "National Lampoons Salt Flats Vacation"
