My first completed build for 2019. Built pretty much out of the box using aftermarket decals. Adjusted the ride height to give it a better stance.

Wow, Wayne you put a beautiful finish on that baby.  What clear did you use?

For any models that have a lot of white in the finish I use Decoart Triple Thick found primarily at Michael's. It features no yellowing over time and I have a couple of builds that I cleared 7 to 8 years ago with this product and still haven't seen any yellowing. Plus, it goes on great and leaves a really good finish.

Thank you so much , Wayne. I thought you were going to say it was one of those horribly toxic two part clears that are super hard and dangerous to use. Knowing that Michaels sells it, is a bonus too. Is it something you shoot with an airbrush , or put on with  a regular brush?  Also is it toxic?  I'm assuming it isn't.

It's a spray can. No toxicity that I'm aware of.

Thanks, but just my luck my local Michaels doesn't sell it. I'm going to see if Texas Art Supply does. I looked it up and it says its non toxic but it is flammable. You say you use it on white cars. Why wouldn't you use it on darker colored cars?
