  1. Here is the car after paint. Thank you all for the help. It's not perfect, but that's okay. Haven't done a detailed just like this before. This was an exercise to research what my car would look like with a different paint scheme.
  2. Can I use Duplicolor spray paint, one color over the other, or should I prime it first? EDIT: I primed it just to be safe. But here's the next question: Can I use Duplicolor Clear Coat on a multi colored model? Will it make the colors run by any chance?
  3. You're quick with the responses. Thank you very much. I'll stick with the Dupli Color paints.
  4. Yes I bought the Yellow Can. I saw the other "unscented" one, but figured it wouldn't be as good. Should I get the Laquer spray paint or will the plastic come out well with the Dupli Color Auto Paint as well?
  5. I purchased the Oven Cleaner and started spraying the body. All the pieces I had painted with Testors Enamel paint is coming off very easily. The Hood, which I painted with the Dupli COlor Auto Spray didn't even fade. So I sanded it and am going to put the Primer on top of the sanded Dupli Color paint. Hope this is okay.
  6. Thank you very much for the response. Going to buy the Duplicolor Primer today, and probably the Oven Cleaner to strip it. I also tried spraying the Hood with Dupli Color spray paint, without primer, and the Red of the plastic is still "seeping" through. Will the Oven Cleaner strip this type of paint as well?
  7. Thanks for the responses. I did not use any primer, and for paint, I just used the Testors Enamel paint in those 1/4 oz bottles. So you're saying I can just get that Laquer spray and paint over what I have and it'll look good? Also, if I have my full coat of white on there with the laquer, can I spray a different color on top of that?
  8. I used a brush to try and paint the body or a Z. But it comes out looking horrible. Should I take the paint off and order some spray paint? I put a layer on, then sanded and repeated the process. But I am still very unhappy with it. It's all uneven and wavy. Help please? If I choose to buy some spray paint, would this work for plastic?
