throw that junk away and find you a liquid or a CA (super glue medium or thick) that you like.. everyone has their own opinion on glue . for liquid i like plastruct plastic weld & weld on 4..Ca glue's i get mine off eBay along with kickers, tips & de-bounder..i use mostly medium & thick CA with a kicker while im building..in all my building years (and im pretty darn old) i found out you dont have to buy that brand name Ca glue ..its all the same..

Awesome Job

looks good so far

Awesome job

mine is vented out the window year round. i just took a piece of plexiglass cut a hole in it, got me a dryer vent ..(one that has the flapper that will close it off when not in use..keeps the critters out)..and screed & silicone it in place. i just keep the vacuum close by to clean out the filters. and that is a must to keep the fums out of your home..

i been using CA's ever since the 80's. get u some of these tips that will fit right over your regular glue tip, then just sat your cap on it. they will stop up on the tip so just cut a little off & when it gets to big replace it with a new one. they real cheap. you can also get the replacement screw on caps for some CA's and all your other CA needs right on eBay..i been buying my glue, caps, tips, de-bonder & kicker their for years..https://www.ebay.com/itm/352065183832?hash=item51f8b86058:g:4hUAAOSwKOJYJQwX&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoEsT%2Fnw%2B2SyPGele3%2FyR0VV2JeCnIKBqGiMe3TlZCsW8p86UNWv9E9XOVM%2FVBaSHDktTJxlTG3WRGNBLRbo2vXHA124ZqQApht7gFrkDsT%2FbwBytvYURAoVwp%2FbXmIwJH4Dr%2Bw7eC4hD4iis%2FD6VRe9d0EWCUyhCCSJ1ObA5BOZqtCov7A%2BN3%2BVW4Uo2M85FTVqWa%2FtTJCtYhb4ro2IoCfg%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6KB757yYA

Welcome to the forum Robert..

Awesome Job

off to a good start..great to build for the grand kids..

great job

took less than 30 days when i ordered mine..

for Molotow Chrome, you can find it on eBay..dont know if u can use it on Alclad ..

MAYBE U CANT BUT I CAN?

ive never removed any chrome with a black primer under it.. it has to be a re-chrome job with the different color plastic. probably something chrome tech had did years ago

great job

Awesome job

once u sand with #1500 grit u have a dull finish then the decal will not lay down as good as on a gloss finish. clear coat then decal ..
