  1. Thanks. Thanks. I will clear it with Revive It floor polish. Thanks Mike. It's Createx AirBrush colors opaque purple. Not the Wicked, just their regular color line. Did you airbrush the Future or brush it on? I'm thinking of brushing mine, not sure about running through my airbrush.
  2. Going with the carbed Ford engine.
  3. The Henry J is looking good Bob. Nice work, keep it up.
  4. Thanks John. I'm sure yours will turn out better, I've saw some of your work, really nice builds. Be careful with the decals, I had problems with some of them breaking apart.
  5. This purple looks blue in these photos.
  6. Great. Do you got a WIP started?
  7. I will be starting this soon. It was a Christmas gift and will be my first big rig kit build. I will probably have lots of questions along the way. Thanks.
  8. Thanks Bob. Thanks. Thanks. It's Wicked Colors Pearl Black. Thanks Mike. I tried the Createx Gloss Top Coat again. Still not getting the gloss I'm looking for. Revive It floor polish has looked the best to me so far. Thanks.
  9. I've got some black but haven't used it yet. I used my Paasche H ( not sure but it's probably a .5) to spray the white and yea it went rough in spots, not very smooth. I was spraying around 30-35 psi. I actually did try it on the 32 body and it was going on really rough so I stopped and washed it off. I may try it again on something but I will thin it a little more. I'm using their 4011 reducer. I put the purple on with a Paasche Talon ( #2 tip and needle, .38 I think) and it sprayed good with just a little thinning.
  10. I used their white AutoBorne sealer under it. It was the first time I had tried it, but I didn't care for it much. It doesn't spray well or I didn't thin it enough. I haven't painted the body yet and I will probably just go back to my regular Rustoleum primer.
  11. Nice kit. Only had a couple of problems. OOB build except for plug wires. Probably pickup another one and go a different route next time. All comments welcome. Thanks for looking.
  12. Calling this one done. Photos under glass.
  13. I'll be building the coupe version, color will be Createx Colors Opaque Purple. OOB build except for some plug wires.
  14. That is beautiful Bob. Really nice work. Great detail. Love the color.
  15. Thanks guys. It is a fun little kit.
  16. Thanks Carl. Thank you Bob.
  17. Thanks Bob. And welcome back. I like this kit, probably will get another one, made a few mistakes with this one, but it is a fun kit.
  18. I have a quick connect on my Paasche hose. If I wanted to connect say a Iwata brush I would just need an Iwata male quick connect adapter, is that correct?
  19. I had problems with my last 2 car builds so decided to get this kit and try to get back on track. It's a nice little kit. I was going to paint it a different color but the green plastic looked good so I just shot some Revive It floor polish on it. Comments welcome.
  20. It's done. Nice little kit. Decals are kind of tricky. Photos under glass.
