Testors Automotive Paints
martinfan5 replied to mrmike's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I only brush it for really small things, but yeah it needs to be A/B for sure, I love the line. -

I have to agree with this , the only Testors/MM lines I use are the Metalizer lines in the jars, now, it would be a giant kick to the balls if they dropped that entire line instead of just the cans, the loss of the sprays doenst bother me, I either air brush or hand brush it on. I stopped using the Auto Lacquer line years ago, I no longer have need it, ive built all the subjects I would using that paint before I got a A/B. I know for many though it will be a loss. -

I brush paint the metalizers all time, for small parts, it works fine, like a intake manifold, yes, they are much better when A/B, I agree fully with you. -
Yep, there is a severe lack of 4dr kits

The photos are of a real LAPD CV that was damaged in the shootout, that is not a movie rental unit, keep in mind that were more than just one patrol units that received damage that day, I have no doubts some of them were repaired and returned to duty. The unit in the photo is a part of I think the LAPD's personal collection as it sits in a covered lot with other ex LAPD units.

Yes, the Deutz tractor is coming sometime this year, I know there are a few shots of the parts trees in the Revell 2019 thread in this section( check the last couple of pages)

One other thing you can do that I dont think was mentioned ( excuse me if it was) , coat the mask line with a clear coat, not a full on wet coat, but just enough to help seal the mask line.

I have to echo what has been said, its a neat little kit, I have fun building mine I am not even into tractors.

I did video on my Youtube channel about using Sharpie's for lights, and I did side by side comparison to clear red paint and the Sharpie looked more real and just better. Now, the clear red paint was brushed on , Id imagine that spraying /air brushing it on would yield a little bit better results but I am still giving the win to the Sharpie
