  1. Well...it's not airbrush easy.....real fiddly and got to play with the pressure.....I use a 3" wide brush....works well that way...but not with pearls or flake. BUT Dan........Tell us how you use it....I'm ready! B)
  2. Hard to shoot pictures when I put it on the base rack...still on my Tamiya rack, put 4 or 5 rings on base, cover. As mine is a convection type no fan or motor, holes vent excess heat and as I have a dimmer set to it, voltage and temp are adjustable. I shoot mainly HOK and am ready to tape off for second color in a couple of hours. I live way south in FL and 90 is the norm...also the normal humidity. I use the dehydrator to stop blush and to shoot and clear multi color jobs in a day... I posted that 48 enamel job as a great reason to speed up dry time..... I know a resin body will warp at 110...so how can you even use resin bodys in your dryers?
  3. And HEAT lets the solvents out of the paint...110 degrees is 110 degrees ....My point is 20 coats of enamel dry overnight in a simple dehydrator. Some of your ovens are as big as my bench!
  4. I've read all this....I know my $30. dehydrator works well, and I can dial in any temp I need.....The 20 coats of high gloss enamel speak wonders. No orange peel, high gloss...this is right out after drying on an old Tamiya can...NOPE no wax or polish.
  5. I want to say water temp, fuel pressure, oil pressure fuel was hand pressurized

    Doc....All you see there is the pearl that Boyds Alumna Yellow contains. I have since cleared it with 3 more pearl colors in the clear, I don't think I need much buffing...just some cheep sunglasses

  20. I love this........But we call those "woods buggys" Used for hunting in the Everglades.....Not quite what goes thru the "Sippie" hole...this might trip your trigger though, as these are the V8 monsters that we call swamp buggies...
