  1. Could be to thin I guess. I thin mine 50/50. I always have a paper towel that I test spray before I start shooting a body. On my Paasche that's about half way open with my 3.0mm tip.
  2. Nice looking drag car. Decals look great. Nice job.
  3. Looking pretty nice there Riley. The ole Flatty is looking nice.
  4. Great looking models. That 29 surf truck looks nice.
  5. For cutters, I just bought the ones you see at HL and they have worked well. I really don't use files but I do use the small paper nail files that the wife's uses. I recently bought some small square sanding blocks the HL sells.
  6. I've used Rust-Olem paint for years on everything from metal lawn furniture, birdhouses, and models. Last year I tried the Rust-Oleum flat gray primer on a mode! and it worked out great. The paint goes on smooth and levels out nicely. I recently sprayed a model truck with Rusty Oleum flat white primer and cleared it with Tamiya pearl clear. The paint job turned out great. I'll be trying the flat red primer and clearing it with Rust-Oleum clear lacquer this Spring.
  7. Good looking old school Hot Rod. Nice color. Great job.
  8. Looks like the teamwork payed off Anton. Nice looking.
  9. That's a different twist on a Bronco. All Ford. I'm diggin it.
  10. Nice. I've air brushed it before with great results.
  11. Give it a go. I was pleased with how my script turned out.
  12. Yeah that looks pretty kewl.
  13. I laid the front suspension and exhaust system on the chassis to see how the fit is and all is well. I also cleaned up the white walls and did a trial fit to the tires. The fit is nice. May paint the white walls a flat white.
  14. That's going to be a nice looking old school Hot Rod.
  15. What about the FolkArt paint did you not like? I've only used it once but it seem to lay down fine.
  16. Haha....it's funny you mentioned driving that to high school. I use to park my 57 Studebaker 2 blocks away. Didn't want others to see what I was driving.
  17. Yes sir. Hope it works for others as it has for me.
  18. Thank's Riley. It seem to work out really nice. I'll be using it again.
  19. I really like the Rust-Oleum primers. They lay down about as good as any primer I've used. I'm planning on painting a model this year with the Rust-Oleum red primer and clear it with a gloss.
  20. Thank's Riley. This was the first time I try stamping the script and it came out pretty good. Thank's Dave. Don't know about the graphics unless it's a stocker or Gasser.
  21. Riley that paint with the white Grille just looks really sharp. Looks just like the color on a 1:1.
  22. I like your story Jim. My mom always liked the big Chryslers and the Rambler wagons. My Grandfather Liked the Studebaker's and that was my first car....1957 Golden Hawk.
  23. This will be a nice build. When I think of the 70 Challenger from back in the day this one color always comes to mind.
  24. Great looking 40 Sedan. I like that big ol Hemi shoehorned in the business end. Stance looks really nice. Great job.
  25. Yikes.....bet that left a mark ?
