Tamiya masking tape adhesive removal
DaveP replied to DaveP's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I think it's an imprint in the paint, so I guess a repaint is in order. It was rattle can stuff but went on beautifully, probably one of my better paint jobs. -
Tamiya masking tape adhesive removal
DaveP replied to DaveP's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
24 hours or so, I was waiting for the paint to completely dry. It's very hot and humid where I am. -
I've used Tamiya masking tape but when I removed it it left an adhesive residue. I don't want to mar the paint so how can I remove the gluey residue without damaging the paint?

I bought the kit already started but with some bits missing. I managed to make most of the missing parts though. It is a great kit, solid as, with very little flash.

Thanks all.

I'm building Revell's Alley Rat. The instructions suggest I put a supplied skull and crossbones decal on the chrome grille. Will the decal adhere to the chrome part? As it's a filled in grill there is lots of high points, how on earth am i going to get the decal to sit properly into all the nooks and crannies?

Great model. How have you mounted the tray onto the chassis? Got any photos of how you did it? -
53 Ford Pickup
DaveP replied to Immortal Chips's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Nice, does the tailgate open? -

So here's the finished product, Detail turns it from a model to something more realistic. I've added a few tow trucks because I like tow trucks and had some decals made using my name as it is my garage. I could add a few bits like security cameras, newspaper stands etc but I have to call it done sometime. I hope you like it, I do! Dave

Very nice work -
I used a cheap letter type stencil, cut out the letters and taped them down, then used a rattle-can yellow.
