  1. Looking forward to more updates. Now to get my Dyno Don Fairmont out and get it started.
  2. I thought vintage racing did these.
  3. Just an update on my package. I started a trace on the package before the refund. Yesterday USPS called me and told me it would be delivered. I told them that I had already refunded the customer. They asked if I wanted it returned to me. I said yes and they are returning it to me for no charge. I didn't expect this but I am glad the timing was right for this to happened.
  4. I need some help. I had a package that that wasn't delivered by today which was 15 days from shipment. I went ahead and refunded the monies for it. Now I get a message from the post office that it will be delivered tomorrow. Is there a process to get my money back once it is delivered. Thanks in advance for you help.
  5. until
    The annual Showdown is a traditional judged contest. We award 1, 2 and 3rd place for each of the 21 categories. In addition we have Master awards for Best Paint, Best Interior, Best Engine Compartment, Best Chassis Detail and Floyd Bryant Best of Show award.
  6. It needs to have primer.
  7. Are you are spraying the parts while still on the sprue? If so you will probably need to remove them from the sprue and mount them to something like an alligator clip or a piece of wire so you can move them around to get full coverage. I use rattle cans alot for detail parts using the above methods.
  8. This looks to be a great kit. Hope they do the Z06 version too which would also lend itself to the GT3 race car.
  9. It says you can reuse the mold material by heating it in the Microwave but does that make it too hat for the plastic master?
  10. Everything is working today using Chrome for me. Thanks for everyone's effort who made this fix possible.
  11. I tend to agree with you Bill. Not sure how to keep it from happening agin though?
  12. I use the green Scotch Bright I have stripped and repainted many bodies over the years using the Scotch Bright to remove the paint & primer with perfect results. One other note is that the Hood & Hard Top turned out fine using the same process as the body. That would eliminate the plastic being a problem?
  13. I did use a scotch bright pad to clean the 1st round of color/clear. But I have done this with many bodies and never had this show up on the repaint. I am stripping the body now. I will reprime it with the Dupli-Color 2n1 that will fill the scratches then put the sealer over it.
  14. Thanks guys. This is the an old AMT prestige kit with white plastic. My guess it was molded before they sent any of the kits to china. I used Dupli-Color Sealer #1699 on the body. This is the second paint job on the car using the same process except on the 1st paint I used the Dupli-Color 1K clear that I decanted.
  15. No sanding done on the body. Primer was fine and so was the color coat. The problem showed up when the clear was put on.
  16. I am having trouble with this paint mostly on the left rear deck. I am using Scale Finishes with a urethane 3 part clear. I have never have had problems putting Urethane over any Scale Finishes base coat. I let the primer dry a day. Then shot the color. Waited an hour and shot the clear. Thanks in advance for your help.
  17. Although I don't use the activity much, it is gone except for this post.
  18. No change for me w/ Chrome. Do I have to delete some cookies? I logged out and back in but that didn't help.
  19. Thanks Matt. So I guess Mid Next year for the US?
  20. Any release date for the Vette Matt?
  21. Nice job. I like the turning wheels.
