Interesting update. I checked a Model I used Alclad Chrome on in 2005. It still shows bright chrome and does not come off when I run a cotton swab over it. Another model I did in 2015 using Spaz Stix Ultra Chrome 1000. Still bright chrome. Does not come off when I rub a cotton swab over it. Does that mean that the longer the cure time the more durable it all of these paints become? My Molotov experiance has Spaz Stix Ultimate Clear Coat 1000 and it did dull the finish some. I did hear the longer it cures the mre durable it gets.

Thanks for sharing your results. ery Helpful to me.

Thx for the info.

I appreciate your position Steve. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks Steve. I have used Alclad Chrome & Spaz Stic Chrome with good results. But they don't stand up to handling. I have also had good results with Molotov and a water based clear on it. I agree the econmics are not good for Molotov but I do like itand would pic it ove the other 2.

Thanks AJ. Ithought I mixed it thorughly yesterday by shaking it. It did have chrome floating on the top painr on my airbrush.

I have a special project I need to do chrome bumpers. I mave used the Molotov refille through my air brush with good results. But I tried it yesterday (it is several years old) and it didn't turn to chrome. 1. Is there a self life on the Molotov? 2. What is the durablity of the Revell chrome? Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Thanks so much everyone for your feedback. I am glad I didn't try it before I asked. I think the choice would be to make a resin master. Then I can either make more of those or do the vacuum form using the resin piece.

I tried this with a clear windshield and it melted some. This would be the normal white plastic that has been modified.

Thx

Thanks David. I will give that a try.

Thanks Les. I will look for something that might work.

Thanks Les. I tried your suggestion and it might work. I had a Revell 69 Charger and it has some of the correct curves too. But like the Camaro it would need a lot of fitting to work. Any suggestions on scratch building one? I just can't get my mind focus on where to start.

I need some ideas on how to build a front alance for this project. Any Ideas will be greatly apprecited. Here are 2 pics of the model plus the actual view of the alance on the car.

My bad too on the dates. That was a year before the debute of the Mark IV,

Its amazing they were able to change he bodies on the J car into the Mark IV so fast

Great job. Love the Corvette race cars.

Thanks for the note. I will give it a try.

I should try that. Do you just use heavy aluminum foil?

Thanks again for your help Gerry. I think I might try to cast one from the Monogram 66 Mustang.

Yes that is the radio type I am looking for Gerry. The aboe P/E looks more like 80's style. Did anyone do one in a set for one of the 60's series cars? The perfect one would be from a 60's Ford like a Mustang. I have the 67 MCG Mustang seet but it des have a radio face.

Gerry, do know if anyone does a Photo Etched old 60's style push button radio face? The ones I have found with Detail Master are newer style.

Thanks for the offer. Wow what a stach. I may get back to you in the Mr Model ones don't show up in a week or so.

Thanks again Gerry for the info. I have both ordered now. I will probably get the Street Rod ones 1st since they are in the US.

Maybe. But I really need the 3d look for them to be accurate.
