  1. Got it. I believe My mistake was using enamel thinner to clean brushes. I will be trying lacquer thinner an I’m sure that’ll work. Thanks guys
  2. Is there a trick to brushing Model Masters acrylic paint? How do you guys clean brushes after using acrylic paint?
  3. Not near my house but it doesn’t flow or it’s too short. How would I smooth it out with putty when it goes together if there’s paint on it?
  4. Is there an easier way to attach exhaust to headers? Or do I just build a whole new one out of styrene or something? Just curious the ones I put together look bad
  5. Ok thanks. I usually paint in my garage. But it's a pain because it's cold have to turn on torpedo heater n I got some batman collectibles in my garage I didn't want to get overspray on. But then I thought is it possible to do it in my house so thanks a lot guys
  6. Hi all. I just bought a paint booth(Best choice products odor extractory hobby spray booth)for my airbrush n spray cans. My question is can I spray in my house with the vent hose to a window like it should be or would the fumes n paint still be too much? Thanks ahead of time for the responses.
  7. Well done sir. Well done
  8. Walgreens has em. I jus bought a few. Thanks for the tips guys
  9. Hi guys here's my 08 challenger. Pretty easy fun build.
  10. How do you guys handle your models when your working on em n having to touch em all the time without damaging paint?
  11. Hi guys. I'm stuck on these doors. So I opened the doors on my 69 charger and I figured out the door jambs. My question is for the door panel do you guys glue it right on and paint it and just tape it off or do you guy paint it in two different pieces. I'm having a hard time so any help would be appreciated
  12. I think when they turn it upside down then it falls. I've had it happen a few times. So now wen I turn it upside down I just make sure to hold on to both parts
  13. Ok thanks guys. I just didn't know if there was a certain way to do it
  14. Hi guys, im working on a revells 69 dodge charger r/t. I just got into opening doors. My last build the doors were horrible and a poor attempt at door jambs. I did some research here on the forums and got some ideas for making better hinges and found very little on door jambs. My question is how would i go about doing a door jamb and the running board under the door. Do i just glue a flat piece of styrene for under the door and do i just shape the inside edge of the door then glue it on. Any help would be appreciated it. Thanks guys
