One hour of foiling and that part is over.

I really like this project. The foiling looks great on the new paint.

Ive got the same body stashed away - but haven't decided who to build it after.

I have used Mr. Surfacer 1000 and 1500 as a primer under Tamiya lacquers and acrylics with no compatibility issues.  In fact I find the 1500 applied with an air brush lays down beautifully smooth.  Perhaps it's the pigment size or a different chemistry in the Mr. Surfacer 500? I think the lower number Mr. Surfacer, such as 400 and 500 are intended as "fillers"  for seams and surface imperfections and then need an additional coat of a finer grade primer before the color coat.

Thanks for your input, guys.  Finally got some free time to get some vinyl letters on.

Well, I finished it.  Messed up my windshields, didn’t go any farther on the lettering, it sits too high in the front, etc.  On the bright side, it has an apt name from a modeling point of view.  Put some fusionfirm on the tailights, will wait for that to dry, then post on the finished builds.
