Good looking Camaro. Nice paint work. Well done.

Everything is looking great, Francis. I always eagerly anticipate your next update, but with such a complex and long-term build that surely takes almost all of your free time, do you ever feel yourself burming-out on the project?

Looking good, Bill. The decals look great with that colour. Nice work on the rocker trim.

Nice work. The paint looks great. Regarding Molotow, clear coat will tend to dull the chrome-like shine. Some clears are worse than others. It seems to me that a well respected builder experimented with several clear coats, and found Alclad Aqua Gloss was the least damaging to the shine, but it is still shinier uncleared. Unfortunately, the stuff will easily dull with handling as well.

Everything in your thread is super cool. I am envious of you. My own daughter was keen to build models when she was young, which I loved, but her mother ran off with her with her years ago and put an end to that. The models are looking great. That's some neat masking on the roof graphics. Vibrant colours. Very nice!

When all else fails, I turn to brake fluid. It's always my last resort, but for stubborn paint, it has worked for me. Two days is not long enough for really tough paint. It can take a week or more. Your photo shows that the paint is being stripped, it just needs more time.

Very nice. You've done a great job on this build. So much opportunity for detailing these cars. Yours looks spot on.

That's a bummer. The paint was going so well. Looks like you've got a handle on it now, though.

I received mine last Monday. It's gorgeous. Got C hood with it as well. Can't wait to get at it.

Nice looking Ranchero. Cool vibe.

Oh man, that’s cool! Beautiful job. The Bluebird is an impressive piece, and your replica brings that feeling to life. Looking forward to seeing your other land speed racing projects.

Why not Tamiya acrylic clear?

Cool project. That thing is going to be a beast.

Wow, that’s looking good.

Gorgeous GT40! That looks fantastic. Very nicely done. Thanks for the history, too.

Nice work. What an elegant old cruiser.

Very cool! That thing looks mean. Nice work.

The master cylinder looks great. Excellent work. Really digging the colours, too. That Mustang is going to look freaking cool.

Looking good!

Your Cooper is fantastic. Wonderful job. I really enjoyed watching it come together. I like the last photo with the Lotus XI. Not many cars are dwarfed by a Lotus XI, but the Cooper looks absolutley tiny. Thanks for sharing your great build.

Yup, my recommendation as well. I also find that most of the Monogram 1/24 scale muscle car kits go together without much fuss.

Great looking Bug. Excellent work on the added details. Nice conversion to slot car. Well done.

Great tip! Cheers.

I see Micro-Mark sells a Badger branded paint filter Badger In-Jar Paint Filter (micromark.com) I bought one of these years ago, but have never tried it.

Great project. Great subject. I'll be watching this one.
