One of my favorites.....

Heck give me another I would even vote REAL....at least there would be one....

Two that the server crashed on......

Good for Bass Boats.....looks quite large. What base is the Krylon???

This is like Chicago.....I get to vote more than once :rolleyes:

Yeah...what Kirk and Joe said......

At 50 /50 It does not flow well, I know many use a mix other than water. I had a bit better luck with Auto Air thinner and water

Its only a couple of steps to post lots of pictures with a free photobucket..Once you have it see this POST and your set!

If I may assist ....Andy that monstrosity was a Brazilian number..short lived. And Harry was kind as the truck version was worse looking!!!

Mike look below the last posters name for a date...if you mouse over it will let you click to the LAST read post. If you use the black "preview" arrow it will show you the first and last posts

I was thinking the 1:1 Elvira.....

The thinner is your trick. Water will sorta work so will alcohol. I have had the best luck using Auto Air 4000 series "Airbrush Cleaner" .I always used Tamiya X20 a thinners for all acrylics, now that its hard to find I found this to be equal...Createx also makes this, as Createx is the mother company for Auto Air Technique is the same..higher pressure does help...unless thinned and not reduced...if you use reducer you will need a higher pressure Here is a link for help AUTO AIR PDF info sheets... http://www.autoaircolors.com/products/product_frames.html

I shoot a lot of the metalizers...little if any thinning needed, no primer and dry quickly. Donn Yost uses them as primer.

Just use the delete function...if you don't likey..you can flushy!!

Now just make sure that your hat still fits!! Well Deserved!!

I know its bad up there..My daughter had clinical s this AM..Prof said last night parking might be tough today...as the exit ramp and parking lot were flooded. Got there this AM and the whole hospital was evacuated!...Hope it gets better soon.

I get Red Sable, in sets, they were cheaper, I have since doubled up on a couple sizes

You got it now. I am working on the same idea but with a Nascar chassis and full cage....I also swore I will not cut it again...Now I will. Well Done!!

Same thought...I'm not sure he has a front bar... Here is a Boss 302 SCCA car....full cage jammed way up

What ratio of India Ink, water , and Alcholol work best as a wash.....I keep trying different mixes...at least they come off after they do not work. I have used Tamiya flat black mixed 1 : 9 and sticks well. The Ink ?????? Any thoughts? I'm using Higgens non waterproof black....seems to mix well...

That will depend on the transparency of the orange...It might take an extra coat....spray a white spoon, count your coats...do the same with a grey primered spoon..you will get the same color..might take that extra coat. I shoot a lot of oranges, and you get a bit more pop from SOME with a white base

Here are more from that same show....GSL 17 http://www.xmission.com/~msgsl/GSL/17win4.htm

As a Ford man 47 chebbies do not do much for me. That said Galaxies kit was the finest I have ever built....detail, accuracy, and the 1:1 way of building it up...FANTASTIC quality from Wisconsin!!!

Well I think Steve is right on course. What I suspect is in both cases your decals lifted or bubbled...I'm thinking trapped water and that WILL cause both products to fail. If the future fails, strip it with a fresh coat or a windex wash...neither will harm your base paint. Did you clear your Basecoat before the decals? I clear first for a smooth even base, decal....forget about for a while in a box and when I find it again its all dry ready for my final clear. I shoot both TS13 and Duplacolor clears depending on my base color paint.
