restoman Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 A bit of a slump buster. I couldn't physically spend much time at the bench, so I opted for this little buggy to help pass the time. It was fun. Painted with nail polish, high-heat aluminum paint and 2K clear, I like how it turned out. Comments always welcome. 2
Bainford Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Nicely done. Looks like a fun build, The nail polish paint turned out great. What did you use as a thinner?

Good ol' lacquer thinner. The orange was REALLY low-hiding, so I put down some white primer, made sure I ddn't sand through it anywhere, and then put down around 8 light coats of colour as evenly as I could. Waited a couple hours till I was sure everything was gassed-out, tacked it off and then put on a double coat of over-thinned 2K clear. 1
espo Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Looks like a fun party vehicle. Like the finishes and the added band in the back.
Zippi Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 That's pretty kewl. What's better than rocking g out on theback of a garbage truck. Nicely done.
