(100) 33 mm lids for my airbrush jars because I use enamels and lacquer thinner and they don't last.  Cellulose and foil seal... when they crud up and aren't worth cleaning I will toss and grab another.  Less than $0.25 each from fleabay.  This made me happy.  Yes, I am a simple man.

Send me that link lol

I like the second ones. Just used them on the AMT Nova wagon kit.

After fixing the hubcaps im sticking with them once i make some hoops with a more shallow offset. the rallys ill use as trade fodder.

its going to be one of these two working their way on there but for sure the hubcaps are going to lead this out just to be original

printed myself into a corner because both wheels look good on there
