  20. First , this is nothing but a win - win for customers who bought , built and now have completed A M T kits that were retailed in the mid to late 1990's . How many times were we buying the aftermarket white walls from the cottage vendors ? I know I would be in line to buy several sets just to brighten up the older A M T / Racing Champion kits I have built as stockers or in diorama scenes ........ Ed Shaver
  21. I would have to agree........... allowing this paint to be sprayed into an airbrush jar is the way to go . It really does come out very inconsistently . This applies to ALL Of the Testors Candy or Translucent paints . By spraying and using an airbrush, you have a better nozzle in which to shoot this paint . You also want to shoot this out as thinly as possible . This stuff is very subceptable to a run or a sag ... Ed Shaver
  22. I'm guessing here . I would venture to say five dozen ...... Ed Shaver
