ewetwo Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 In progress. Painted and sprayed Testor’s clear on it. So far so good. No paint screw ups. Lol 3
Keef Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 Have 1 of these in my stash that I got on clearance at Hobby Lobby. I’ll be watching to see what you do with it.
AMT68 Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 What is the color and brand of the base coat? I really like it and you're off to a nice start.
ewetwo Posted October 6, 2022 Author Posted October 6, 2022 Tom. The color is from a small Dupli Color can I bought at a garage sale years ago. So I don’t know. Lol. Just thought it was the right color. It does say gm382w on the bottom. The interior is going to be a MotoMaster Honda Sage Green but doesn’t look green at all. Again a can dated 1994-95.

Modlbldr Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 Yeah, I have several of those old Duplicolor paints in that size can. I like the colors of them but, like a lot of Testos paints their downfall was that they never printed the color on the can. I should have written the color.on them with a Sharpie. Nice color and it looks lile you're off to a great start. Later-

bisc63 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 Very sharp color for the Buick, really accents the body lines.
AMT68 Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Thanks for the info David and I'm not surprised it's an older can since that shade of blue isn't so common anymore. Not a bad idea to visit estate sales. In the meanwhile I have this '62 kit unbuilt so I'll be following along.

slusher Posted October 8, 2022 Posted October 8, 2022 Great color, David. A friend of my brothers had one a silverfish blue with a whit top..
XYHARRY Posted October 8, 2022 Posted October 8, 2022 Nice color choice David. I also have this kit and will be looking forward to seeing what you do with yours. Cheers, David. ??
