All acronym griping and run-on sentence creating aside; Back the original question. I also am no expert on the topic and can only go by a very limited experience. Createx has an additive (4030 balancing clear) that is supposed to, among other things, increase the durability of their paint. Much like a hardener. I haven't tested it but I've used it. Haven't tried it with glossy or candy paint (which they also state it is a carrier for).

I just came up with another one.... Land Yachts.... any car that meets a minimum overall length. Say about 220 inches or so (from the factory)

Some of the other's that have been floated around in the past have been: Service vehicles Hot wheels Cars from movies/TV Cars from songs

Don't remember if it was last year or the year before but there was a lot of interest in a RADwood type of theme. Don't know much about it other than it is an 80's and 90's car culture type event. https://www.radwood.com/

Crazy candy corn story.... when I was somewhere between 3 and 5 years old I shoved a candy corn so far up my nose that my parents had to take me to the doctor to remove it. I haven't touched any since.

I bought my wife a 60's schwinn a few years back and needs some work. Just haven't gotten around to restoring it. You are kind of inspiring me to start.

Always loved watching the Forces race. Met him a couple times over the years. All the grand kids are still pretty young but I wouldn't be surprised to see another Force racing someday.

Glad you are getting around and the soreness should pass. Hope you are feeling better quickly.

Here are a couple from my some day I'll get to it list.

Why things go back in the box for me: 1. Waiting on aftermarket parts or tires or engine. Spent hobby budget on a new kit rather than the parts for the old kit. 2. Engine and interior turned out great, now I'm scared i am going to screw up the paint or just need to buy paint but where did the hobby budget money go.....oh yeah, new kit 3. I'm bored of this....why did I want to build this again?? I don't even like this car.....plus I just got that new kit...

Thank you. The paint has a much more transitional effect than I thought it would. Depending on the light it goes from a blueish gold to a darker greenish gold.

I'm in for he Camaro and Corvette. I'll just enjoy seeing what y'all do with the trucks.

I am actually excited about this one. Time to go shopping!!

I guess the question I have is, what do you want? I know what you don't want and don't necessarily disagree with you. As one of the more casual builders on this site I get very picky about what I want to build. As someone in my mid 50's in age, I didn't own or drive any car older than 1970. So the nostalgia plays little in my mind. I do like building some 60s & 70s stuff but don't need every model year of the Duster. In the same token, how many Skylines do we need???? Talk about an over done import. And how about some modern NHRA stuff....I would much rather have a current Tony Stewart top fuel dragster or John Force Funny Car than replicate whoever won the 1962 Winter Nationals. (Sorry I went off on a tangent there) I am guessing you are looking for one of two things: More modern cars 90's-2020s (other than Mustang, Camaro, Charger or Challenger which all exist for the most part)? or Totally new toolings of classic cars. (With Tamiya like fitment and included detailed photo etch - and always with engines)?

How in the world do you get the tape to not pull off your foil????
