Enamel clear does yellow. As for protecting decals from yellowing, it depends on which clear coat you use. Some seal the paint and decals better than others. They may be formulated to prevent oxidation, protect from UV , etc. Actual automotive clear coats are formulated to protect color coats from environmental damage, so I beleive they would be best.

nice to hear something positive. Unfortunately, we are more likely to complain than compliment. but the complaints/ negative reviews do keep us from getting bad products.

I have kits from the '60s with better looking decals!

Ollie's grand opening today. they had 1 late model camaro, 1 e-type (opened box) Fendt or Porsche tractors (can;t remember which)and ships.

After 2 days of cooler and wetter weather than forecast, well on the way to forecast high temps. probably similar to what most of the country is getting. Just one day with humidity under 50% would let me get a final color coat on a kit.

that VW diecast has gasser/ street freak written all over it. Or perhaps flowers and peace signs?

For help with holding parts steady, you can look at circuit board holder. I bought one for building while recovering from shoulder surgery. It has four alligator clips on flexible arms, two of them screwed to the base and two have magnets so you can adjust the to hold anything in any position.

This irk is a blessing in disguise with forecast temps around 100 or higher, the county has decided to seal and chip the road in front of my house, probably Monday. That means bench time!

scammers. I got one in the mail. From a company with a name very similar to the old owner of my mortgage. with my late wife' name on it. call them now to claim my money.

Yesterday 80 and .5" rain. tomorrow and for the foreseeable future around 100, with heat indices of around 105 or higher. I guess it will be perfect weather for foiling and assembly of all the kits I sprayed last fall.

Sad to see all of that beautiful steel in such condition, but at least it has not been crushed and turned into toasters.

One thing to remember is at one time radios, heaters, etc. were optional equipment. And wipers were vacuum operated.

Unless that is pink primer, I would say the color from the plastic has bled through the primer. I would say you need a better primer, primer sealer, or try using silver paint as a sealer. Then color coat. But others here might have better advice.

According to this website, there was a block off plate behind the butterflies. the scoop was just for looks. 1965 NOVA SS - InNOVAtion | dobbertinperformance

perhaps they somehow built in a one-way check-valve? That is not the car I was referring to. the one I remember was a light blue metallic one.
