I think he is wanting to paint matt black on the hood........... Mike, I might would paint the whole truck green (or what color you may be using), mask for the black on the hood, then spray DupliColor sandable black primer on the hood...... You can polish the whole truck then, and that will take care of the edge where the primer was sprayed, and give the primer a little sheen..... Just make sure you can spray the primer over the clear you use on the body..........

JC, you've probably heard of this album...... It's by a guy called Eenor...... he played with Les Claypool on the Frog Brigade tour. The best song on this album has to be "Resistance", but the whole album is pretty decent.......... It's called "Monkey to Monkey"

Thanks a bunch, fellas! David, the color is just called "dark blue metallic".......... It's a DupliColor GM color....... and you're right, this color is hard to get right in a pic! Finished pics will most likely be outside

Thank you, Carl...... Got the foil taken care of! Whew...........! It's not perfect, but it's done.......... Thanks for looking and for any comments..............

That's Funny! I usually just use Craigslist for entertainment purposes...... and there is always plenty of that! Anyone read the "Best Of" stuff?

Beer or Ammo?

A welder once told me that the two surfaces being welded together had to be CLEAN clean........ of not only rust, but of oils and grease and stuff..... Have any pics? Someone here can help...........

Thank You, Joe! That's gonna be a real big help, man......... very cool......... this is my first real undertaking of a Military Bird, and I want to get it right....

".......with Scale Fade" Wow! Thanks, Joe, but that seems to be the MV-22B scheme, I'd like to do the plain V-22 so I can do a solid color if I can......... Would one of those grays on the color chart be what I'm looking for?

Hey, Guys....... I want to order the Italeri 1/48 V-22 Osprey, and I'll need to order the paint for it when I do.... Who makes the light blue/gray color used by the Marines on these aircraft? It will need to be in a spray, as I don't have an air brush......... Thanks for any help!

Got some paint on! This paint job didn't go as swimmingly as I hoped it would.... I got bad orange peel in the second clear coat and had to wet sand that out, then applied one more coat of clear. I hope it's acceptable for you guys! I usually won't paint two consecutive models the same color, but that's just how it worked out...... Thanks...........

Maybe to prep the inside of clear parts, like lenses for lights? I'm interested to know this, too........

Thanks, Marty!....... I've got the body in final primer..... also have the engine pretty much done...... I'll wait until I have enough clear to do everything before I spray any paint. I like to paint and clear in the same day, while I'm "in the groove"..... Thanks for lookin'!

'cause they're bad
