It is raining today but I did get the body wet sanded & polished. Unfortunately we have rain forecaster for the next week so I can't get the interior painted. I'm thinking of a single seat in the cab with a fire extinguisher and Nitro's bottle in the passengers side. I have some Nitro's bottles coming from the Iceman today. -

When it came time to wipe the paint off the bmf on the script with lacquer thinner it was touch and go. You really need a steady hand. I couldn't do the F-1 script. It was just to small for me. I don't care for how it turned out. I also got my wheels and tires finished. -

Well...the weather cooperated today and I got a lot of painting done. Painted the chassis a Rust-Oleum flat black and it may get cleared. Got the wheels Painted with Tamiya Semi Gloss Black and they will get cleared. I got the body in Tamiya Light Gray primer and everything is looking good so far. -

My plan is to try and get the body in primer this afternoon. The humidity right now is at 95% and I want it to drop below 60% before before I'l paint. I'm also going to try something new. I'm gong to try the paint over bmf for the script. The front script I trimmed as close as I could to the letters and on the F-1 on the sides of the cab I just cut a rectangle around the script. I think this is how it is normally done. Once the paint is dry I'll come back with a pointy Q-Tip and lacquer thinner and rub the paint off the bmf on the script. -
