I'm in the final stages of finishing my BRE 240Z and have lost the grill. 😪 Does anyone have one they can spare or swap for?

Here's a review of the Revell enamels as well as a solution for those who dislike the Revell and Humbrol tinlets.

Barbatos Rex seems to like them. He always sprays spoons. I'm curious how well they would work spraying model car bodies, which aren't as easy as spraying a spoon. He bought bottles to transfer the paint into since the lids are terrible.

I believe that's a Seinfeld inspired myth.

[Stella Steven's Died Today]

What a bad week.  First Racquel and now Stella Stevens. Never a huge star, but she was in The Nutty Professor with Jerry Lewis. If you ever saw her in Playboy, you will surely remember her.

[Raquel Welch dead at 82.]

The most beautiful women are, for me, if she's a blonde, it's Barbara Eden, if she's a red head, it's Ann Margret and if she's a brunette, it's Raquel Welch. 😪

[Does your workbench look like this too often?]

I used to have multiple projects going but decided to try the one at a time approach

 If I get stuck on something,  I might start a new one. I'm at that point right now. I have loads of space but it can get cluttered.

[Has Anyone Tried the Revell Enamel Paints in Tinlets?]

Just wondering if anyone has tried this stuff. If so, what do you think of it?

I searched Amazon and it's priced at $9 to $11 per can for 14 ml or 1/2 oz. Hobbylinc's price is really cheap. Looks like you get a good amount for a decent price. Here's a link

[Sometime in the near future]

Take care, Carl. I'm almost 79 and things are getting harder to do for me, as well. I just threw my BRE 240Z into the alcohol pond for the third time. I keep making mistakes. I don't want to give up yet. But I certainly understand your predicament.

Hi Tom, I use a 1/2 inch flat brush made by Privateer Press model 93090 for all large surfaces like body, glass etc.

I searched Hobby Lobby and Michael's. Neither has it. What's your source?

I used to dip parts in Future but I now brush it on the part and I think it is actually better.

What brand and size brush do you use?

[Paint problem]

I built a XKE molded in red plastic. Used Createx Wicked white as a primer and got zero bleed through.

[Revell 1956 Ford Thunderbird 1/24 Scale in Pearl Magenta.]

Nice bird with good details.  Have you tried the Createx 4053 yet? It's supposed to be more glossy than the 4050. I've got some 4050 but I used acrylic enamel clear on my last build. Was the 4050 easy to work with?

Yeah, if I'm really tired of scrolling, I'll do that.

Yep, Bill you are correct.

I've been using the duck for a while and noticed the same thing. Anyone using anything they'd recommend?

Welcome to the forum.

[How do you mask body side moldings?]

White Tamiya masking tape? It's pretty thin. I'm saying use it as the molding, not for masking.

So, spray body color, apply decals, clear coat over all, then mask and spray black?

That's how I'd do it, Sidney.

Joe, you might want to look into this.....GSI Creos Mr. Airbrush Procon Boy PS-290.  Spraygunner.com has it on sale for an even $100 and free shipping.

TransAmMike is right. I use the PS-290 for bodies and it perform like a spray gun does on 1:1 cars. The Paasche is good for everything else. That price from Spraygunner is great too. I paid $130 for mine but even at that price, I don't regret it. If you're on a budget,  the Paasche will work. If you want to do it right the first time and can afford it, the PS-290 can't be beat at that price.

[Buying My First Airbrush (or Compressor) Questions.]

The Paasche is a great airbrush. You can spray both enamels and lacquers with it. It's probably cheaper than an Iwata.

[Odds-N-Ends paint?]

There's a learning curve, but I like the Createx line of paints.
