  1. This is how it has been sitting for several months, hope to knock it out over Thanksgiving http:// http://
  2. As I've been told, also remember to use automotive primer before using automotive paint, or you could end up with a melted Mustang!
  3. Also keep in mind that these putties sometimes have a tendency to shrink, if i have a joint seam or a really low spot, I started using med. CA glue first, sands out well. Then putty over top.
  4. Awesome stuff, thanks!!
  5. I have not tried the that paint set up yet, but my experience is that some paints, especially fresh jobs, need to soak for several days to make a dent. Put it in and forget about it for awhile.
  6. There have been many discussions on this subject here, the risk is NOT worth it! The fumes, flammability, and explosiveness!
  7. Another idea would be to use a toothpick or the like with a bit of sticky tack on the end (blue plyable compound to hang pics or posters with) and then apply your adhesive.
  8. Wow Larry, sorry about your friend, glad to see he's continuing on in a positive way! My thought and observation over the years as many products come out with all these crazy warnings on them of what not to do, is that somebody somewhere has tried these things with disasterous results. We are given one life,appreciate it! Happy modeling
  9. I'm having the same problem finding the color for a '96 Impalas SS, the paint codes and chips available online and in auto shops don't match the ones I've seen on the street, it's a rare color. Online is easiest, or a good auto body store can also help.
  10. Try making your own with a piece of wood dowel or plastic and gluing your grit you're working with on the end, you can cut any shape to accommodate the area of need.
  11. I've taken some to my local office supply store and had them copied on a laser printer on my decal paper. Keep in mind they can't print white, but you can use white decal paper. Also, you will have to seal them with clear and cut out the detail on your own.
  12. I have heard about the debonder, it sometimes works, and you may have to try it several times to get through.
  13. Is there any difference between the Dark Knight Rises version and the Trilogy version?
  14. Guess I better go make some more copies! Thanks guys, I debated about clear first, just hesitsnt to loose the nice finish I had gotten, but .....I know,I know!
  15. Would it be a stretch to think if I sprayed the clear over the decals now, it would soak in and adhere?
  16. I recently applied some decals to a Monza F/C I sprayed in drab green, the paper came from Micro Mark and they are lifting off. Any insight is welcome!
  17. AMT makes the tire packs of slicks, the old style your looking for(minus the grooves), small drag slicks, and jumbo drag slicks.
  18. What gives the best and proper finish of a military drab color, as far as thinner to use with Mod. Mast. enamel sprayed from an airbrush?
  19. I got some done, working on many unfinished projects when a bump in the rode pops up. Got some turbos, but they still look too big, have'nt located a good scale fit yet, need something in 1/25. May have to make them myself. I found another section of the body that needed a little more straightening and jammin' this Vette motor into the Impala from another kit proves interesting!
  20. Thanks to one and all, I felt my skills have gotten good enough to justify painting it. Still lots to learn, but thanks to many here for your ideas and experiences that you share!
  21. I lost the tailpipe/mufflers, had to remake them. Pretty basic build, had this for probably 30yrs. Onto the finishing the Impala SS!
  22. Well, here's the Pantera finished, man, black sure attracts the dust!
  23. I have also purchased couple from him. Overall very nice, I got the 55-57 5700 Crew Cab and the 50 Breadvan. They both are very nice, the 5700 door lines could have been better, have to rescribe them. The Breadvan is just COOL!
  24. He stated to me that we keep him and his wife busy enough as it is!! If we all had that problem!
  25. I purchased two 1970 Olds W-30 hoods and they are perfect! The rear spoiler, needs some improvement, but from the other items I've seen, they are quality. He won't email pics either, tried that.
