  1. I think it should be able to. Is like when the 32 fords came out they are hotroded from revell with the newer engines and running gear,interior etc. You could see them all over the contest tables with alittle or no mods done to them.
  2. Hello Dave The basic putty is for small repairs /filling etc. If you are using this as a scupting putty there are much beter products available. Such as milliputty orr evenTamiyas 2 part epoxy putty I myself have not used Tamiya 2 part epoxy putty someone here could tll you more on that. Also the basic putty has a good amount of shrinking you may want to use something that has alot less or even no shrinking to it. Just my 2cents.
  3. how about the wheels on the Mercedes CLK from tamiya?
  4. So is painting with a regular air compresser with laquer paints any paint for that matter chemical compound, CO2, a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that is about one and one-half times as dense as air under ordinary conditions of temperature and pressure. It does not burn, and under normal conditions it is stable, inert and nontoxic. Carbon dioxide has varied commercial uses. Its greatest use as a chemical is in the production of carbonated beverages; it provides the sparkle in carbonated beverages such as soda water. Formed by the action of yeast or baking powder, carbon dioxide causes the rising of bread dough. The compound is also used in water softening, in the manufacture of aspirin and lead paint pigments, and in the Solvay process for the preparation of sodium carbonate. In some fire extinguishers carbon dioxide is expelled through a nozzle and settles on the flame, smothering it. It also has numerous nonchemical uses. It is used as a pressurizing medium and propellant, e.g., in aerosol cans of food, in fire extinguishers, in target pistols, and for inflating life rafts. Because it is relatively inert, it is used to provide a nonreactive atmosphere, e.g., for packaging foods, such as coffee, that can be spoiled by oxidation during storage. Solid carbon dioxide, known as dry ice, is used as a refrigerating agent. For commercial use it is available as a liquid under high pressure in steel cylinders, as a low-temperature liquid at lower pressures, and as the solid dry ice. Carbon monoxide, with the chemical formula CO, is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. It is the product of the incomplete combustion of carbon-containing compounds, notably in internal-combustion engines. It has significant fuel value, burning in air with a characteristic blue flame, producing carbon dioxide. Despite its serious toxicity, CO plays a highly useful role in modern technology, being a precursor to a myriad of products. It consists of one carbon atom covalently bonded to one oxygen atom. It is a gas at room temperature.
  5. Get in contact with Norm Veber from Replicas and Miniatures of MD. He has one I don't think he has it in his catalog but he will cast one for you.

  7. I use a CO2 tank 20lbs. tank with regulater is about 105 dollars. I saw this in an airbrush mag the guy painting used it because it had no oil and water problems. It last a long time also. it only cost about 12-15 dollars to fill. it is very silent.
  8. Its a real shame to see someone go out like this. After so many years doing the samething how do you just change path. I suspected something funny when he was having that open warehouse sale. i think this affects alot of people. Us modellers even if we didn't buy kits from him,model companies, model suppliers and even our favorite magazinez that he advertised in. Thats the first message board that I visited and learned alot of technics from alot of great builders.
