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. -

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. -
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.

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.

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. -

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. -
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?

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.
-
It's done. Nice little kit. Decals are kind of tricky. Photos under glass.
