  1. The actual color is called Mocha Frost Metallic and it’s a factory Ford color, and think everyone is right the black will look best but I’m liking the idea of silver with red I think that’s how the second one will be.
  2. It is definitely a color close to that just a little more to the gold side but very close. I think I’m going to go with the black and pick up another one to do a different color with the red stripe. Maybe white with the red stripe for the next one ?
  3. I haven’t painted the interior yet and I was figuring on matching it with the stripe. I’m starting to think the black would look best. I’m just going to have to get another kit so I can do one with the red stripe lol....
  4. I have a 69 Charger that came with a red, white and black tail stripe and I wanted to use the red but I think the black may go better with the color I chose. What do you all think
  5. I have a larger cutter for doing decals and shirt vinyl and it will cut pretty small as long as there is not to much detail in what you are cutting. I resently was thinking about doing the same thing for a Mustang I'm building and making a pro street out of. I use the cutter mostly for making templates for etching glasses and have done some smaller detail with it.
  6. I had never heard of Aztek I'll have to get some, I'm not familiar with IPA what does that stand for? I know if I do a search it's just going to come up a bunch of beers lol...
  7. Ok I think next time I’m on a paintball kick, lol I’m going to give it a shot...
  8. ok useful info, since your thinning the polish with lacquer thinner then I would think an enamel clear would probably work well, I have some Dupli-color Acrylic enamel clear I'll have to try that as one of my testers when I give this a try. Thanks...
  9. I know I have a old Monogram 70 Chevelle SS454 1/24th I built years ago that I wanted to redo but was in to bad of shape to do as stock like I wanted. So I picked up in trade the Revell Baldwin motion 70 Chevelle 1/25th. Come to find out it's the same kit with a different hood and exhaust so I put the stock hood and exhaust on the new kit and did a custom on the old kit... Old Monogram kit with the New Revell hood
  10. Hi All, I'm wanting to expand my colors and types of paints to expand the color possibilities. I want to start using nail polish and craft acrylics like folk art or apple barrel. I need some input though and I'm wanting to know what everyone uses to reduce these paints and what there clear of choice is for of them? I want to see what my options are working with these product, Thanks in advance for your help and input.... B
  11. Mostly Dupli-color clear and color these days... i have used Krylon recently to get a color I wanted...
  12. The only kit I’ve ever not painted was a monogram coronet that was the metallic blue plastic, I just liked how it looked. I recently put pledge/future on it and it looks even better now I think.
  13. I will probably have to take out another mortgage but I do hope they open fast....
  14. Your HL is the one north of me, Exton PA
  15. Nice!!! They would be handy to have....
  16. My closest one currently is about 2 hours north or 2 hours south and my only local place is in the mall so it's way over priced...
  17. Cool thanks, How many of those cards do you have and what era do they cover
  18. For the Baker car? Or the Petty car ? We kind of got both in question now lol... but I’m betting Baker
  19. I just saw in the local news postings that Dover DE is getting a Hobby Lobby! YEAH!!!.... They signed a lease on a place about 3 miles from my house. I can see me going broke now LOL!!!! DOIN’ THE HAPPY DANCE!!!!
  20. I have actually made progress on the Petty car, I put the second color and in my rush didn’t shake it as much as I should have and it seemed to make the color move exceptable so I was rather happy about that
  21. That's incredible, your ability far exceeds mine that's probably why I still use paint lol....
  22. I usually just dispense some into a soda bottle lid or a gatorade bottle lid. I save lids in different sizes for it and putting acrylics in to have something to work out of.
