I’ve used the scotch bright pads after soaking models that needed purple power. Helps clean off the old paint but the body ended up being pretty well set afterwards for primer.

I will post but I’m not a pro builder. That’s why I love these kit. I bought a second Edsel at an estate sale to rebuild even though I already have one built. Odd thing with the one a bought is whoever built it. Used some kind of glue that was like a stretchy glue. Don’t know what they used. Most of the Edsel parts either just fell apart or had that streatchy glue. Elmers maybe?

Me too because I don’t have the steady hand I did when I was young. I have two models i’m Working on and have repainted sections because of trying to paint the silver trim. Ugh!

Just picked up this 1957 Chevy ProShop kit. Also bottles of Testors flat gray and gloss wood paints along with a Testors red gloss paint pen.

Hobby Lobby/ Michaels ?
ewetwo replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
There was a Hobbytown in Colonie, NY but that closed about a year or so ago. I use to buy there but obviously business wasn’t good enough to keep it open. Sad really. You could buy white wall tires and anything else there. When I was a kid just about every kit camE with white walls. If you didn’t want them. You used the reverse side. -
This is good to know because I have quite a few old decals that look kind of brittle.

Hobby Lobby/ Michaels ?
ewetwo replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I had to drive 3/4 of the way to Hobby Lobby and AC Moore today in order to go to an ATT store. Almost 40 miles to that store. So what's another 10 to 12 miles to HL and AC Moore. Sticker shock. The new models coming into AC Moore are priced at $37.99 a kit. Make sure you have your coupon. And by new they are just restocking what they had. -
Looks great.

He was probably going to sell them on ebay.

What is LHS? -
Took all day but I opened every kit and put tires in baggies. I did notice the newer kits did have the tires sealed separately. I had one slight tire burn. And I found out I have 3 1940 ford coupes plus a sedan delivery. And some kits I really have no interest in.
