In one of GeeBee's (Geoff Brown) last posts in "What did you get today?", he shows two 250 ml bottles of Tamiya Lacquer Thinner, One has Retarder. This might be the equivalent of Mr Hobby self leveling thinner.

another air brush question.
Bill Eh? replied to cobraman's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Ray, I would suggest the very reliable Paasche H single action airbrush. They can usually be found at a very reasonable price. Who knows, you may just like it enough to keep on using it on other projects. ? -
The 1/12th F-1 thing has seriously got a hold of you! LOL ?

Bill Eh? replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Bill, the 1/24 Tamiya Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA is a full detail kit w/engine. Here is a link to an in-box review. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD4J_g1_VlQ -
Lotus esprit with engine?
Bill Eh? replied to gbdolfans's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
There is also a Monogram Turbo Esprit kit. I'm not sure if in fact it is different than the Sport 300 kit. -
I am a member of the forum, but have not commented thus far. Michael, as to your post from above, I now see this message before I log in: "Join the conversation You can post now and register later. If you have an account, sign in now to post with your account." I'm not sure if this might be a contributing factor in this situation. People may comment, because they can, and then not register as forum members.

Bruce, there is a member of the F1M forum who makes different sizes and brands of 1/12 F1 tires. I believe his forum name is Icon Modeller.

Bruce, those will all be nice additions. I believe I now have all of Tamiya's 1/12 F-1 kits. I am partial to the McLaren M23, as that was one of the cars that I saw in my first attended GP event! Show Berger some love! LOL ?

Nice score on the three Rosso kits. As you said, the detail is quite impressive. I remember that the A pillars on the NSX were quite fragile when I built it. They included a metal weight insert to give it some heft!

Then 1/12 is probably way out of the question!

Yes, it was. The Revell kit is a repop of the Protar 1/12 scale Ferrari 312T. A better choice would be the Tamiya kit which can be found easily on eBay.

Is the magazine getting back on track?
Bill Eh? replied to Bugatti Fan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well expressed Jacob. -
I don't really think that Tamiya missed the mark. They are pretty thorough in the research and description of their models. Tamiya never did in fact, a model of the Toyota 88C, only two versions of the 88C-V (Minolta and Taka-Q). The description does not say that it raced at LeMans. The 88C-V was a development of the 88C and was raced in the all Japan Series in preparation for competing in upcoming LeMans. You are correct in that the further developed 89C-V did not race at LeMans. It was not until the the 1990 LeMans that the the Toyota 90C-V competed, where the number 36 finished 6th in class and overall.

Cant find specific thread
Bill Eh? replied to youpey's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Could this be the thread? -
Nicely finished. That's the first time I've seen the turbo version of this kit. I always thought that it was an interesting car in a quirky kind of way.

Sorry about my hasty response Steve. James, you're right. I must have had my brain only half engaged when I replied. James, thanks for providing the correct information.
