when painting an old kit "molded in color, I know you need a good primer or sealer to prevent color bleeding through. I have also seen it recommended to use silver paint. my question is what about other "metal" finishes such as copper or gold?

silly putty
rattle can man replied to rattle can man's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
i wasn't sure if the tape sticky side of the tape would stick to the putty or not. -
When using silly putty to mask something, DO you tape large areas and then use the silly putty to finish th between the tape and where the edge of the mask wing will be? ie. when masking a chassis/frame unit, mask the large areas of the floor with tape and then use silly putty over the tape edge and up to the frame?

RED Turn Signals/Hazards : WHY ?!?
rattle can man replied to 1972coronet's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
If those bright headlights are properly aimed, they are not a problem. It is when people change the settings, raise or lower the vehicle without correcting the aim, or repairs are not done properly that they become a problem -

OLD AMT decal sheet? For ???
rattle can man replied to gtx6970's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I suppose the Chevy decals are for the corvette parts of the front suspension and perhaps where they sourced the Borg-Warner T-10 from. -
subject and price are what is important to me.

Aoshima makes some 4 lug wheel sets, not sure if any of them will meet your requirements -

the potential buyer says no interest in a racing facility. Looks like it will go the way of our blues club. -

Trade for something interesting (Not a Chevy or post '80s stuff) Somehow I ordered 1:16 scale instead of 1:24/ 25 a few years ago. I am looking for the custom parts for a Revell Barris Rolls-Royce beetle or AMT custom '40 ford VW beetle parts.
