  1. I just did this on my 70 chevelle wheels, and it works!!! this tip is awesome. never will i get paint on my trim rings again. good work.
  2. Caine, looks good! You should build two and leave one all black! Very mean
  3. I painted my interior tub flat black, then i brushed the console, rear seat and door panels with future. I thought this gave a realistic look. Not as glossy as gloss paint and a good look for the interior.
  4. A lot of new cars are body color underneath with subframes and suspension pieces painted black or very dark grey with undercoating.
  5. looks good as usual! if your taking paint suggestions, im a fan of the Andy Jensen car. Also, i think the wheels would look super nasty black
  6. Very cool! I heard he's doing a BBC and a 302 Z-28 engine too.
  7. Very cool! Thanks for posting. Wonder if it will work on monogram 70 ss wheels?
  8. Build another chevy model they are easier to work on anyways in 1:25 or 1:1.
  9. The white and red orange really looks good. That is a nasty looking super stocker. good job.
  10. Then they go and give cheesy tire decals in the drag car kits. "revell 1/4 mile special?" get real.
  11. Can you get the duplicolor acrylc laquer primer at walmart?
  12. If i had my car lettered, i would call it "fast worker". I saw a B-17 in a book named that.
  13. I painted my body today. I primed it with some flat enamel I had laying around then followed with a acrylic laquer top coat. The paint got wrinkled in some spots, but ok in others. Did i use the wrong primer? I will try to post pics. Looks like I'll have to strip this one.
  14. Sharp! nice detail work! you and Caine440 should get together and have a ramchargers photoshoot
  15. nice 2 tone paint on them both!! looking good man!
  16. way cool!!! Big Montes rule!
  17. Im a little body work illiterate! color sanding is just sanding the base coat with water right?
  18. Do you mean polish with micro mesh? Or using some kind of rubbing compound?
  19. The engine looks awesome on this. Also the tires look great! What company did you get the tire decals from. I am looking for somthing like that.
  20. I just picked some of this stuff up. It says duplicolor auto touch up acrylic laquer. I tried it on a couple of spare body parts and it won't lay down smooth. My question is 1. Has anyone used this stuff 2. Will a clear coat make it appear smooth or do I need to polish the base coat first. Thanks.
  21. Why do you guys turn every post about mopars into a pissing contest about "facts"? Kind of thread hijacking isnt it?
  22. Nice scratch building! Looking forward to more updates
  23. Nice looking!! i really like the louvered trunk. A true hot rod.
  24. Beautiful! Kudos for making the parking/turn signals clear instead of orange
  25. way cool!!! how did you do the paint marks on the firewall?
