tubbs Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 great job Blair. I have a boatload of those paints at home, never thought to use them on a kit. what ratio did you use to thin it. that's awful thick paint. also, what did you use for the air tanks. it all looks outstanding.
bpletcher55 Posted April 14, 2015 Author Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) AL, the tanks are made from round styrene rod , the paint was thinned with pledge with future shine .the mix is all most 50/50 . Edited April 14, 2015 by bpletcher55
bobthehobbyguy Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Nice work. Great tip on the paints. Looking forward to more.

tubbs Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 AL, the tanks are made from round styrene rod , the paint was thinned with pledge with future shine .the mix is all most 50/50 .wait, let me clear my ears.... pledge... furniture polish? with future floor way? neat. knew it wasn't water, but didn't think of that. is the pledge a liquid? sorry for the questions.
rsxse240 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 That's the new packaging of future acrylic floor shine, right? I was at wally world looking for future and couldn't find it.
