Chuck Most Posted August 9, 2023 Author Posted August 9, 2023 1 hour ago, DoctorLarry said: Very nicely done! How did you "chrome" the emblems? That detail is very neat. The rest of the build is period perfect. Foil over the emblems in the raw plastic, prime, and GENTLY sand off the primer. Repeat the process for paint. Depending on how well defined the emblems are that's about it. I burned through the foil on a couple corners and touched it up with paint from a Molotow chrome pen applied with the point of a toothpick. I tried the same thing on the little round emblems on the C posts but they are too faint so they were foiled after paint.
DoctorLarry Posted August 9, 2023 Posted August 9, 2023 Thanks. I have a problem with BMF being very fragile and tending to peel off if handled. It seems it would be hard to get it to stick to such small areas but I will try it. Thanks for the tip! 1
redscampi Posted August 9, 2023 Posted August 9, 2023 Love it! This is one of those bodies that I've never been fond of but you made me a believer! I'd definitely drive that.
