Lownslow Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) was gonna be box stock but i realized the hood and side trim on this car looks like ###### in scale and 1:1 so i shaved it all off, the color is gonna be nail polish, again. i know i know but for a buck it puts most paints to shame when it comes to metallic depth.

MikeMc Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I'm old and confused....is it a LOW pro or a HIGH gasser?? HELP!!!!
Smart-Resins Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Hopefully a gasser! I have one coming very shortly. Just ordered a tear drop for the hood from my friend Ed Fluck at drag city casting. Will do a white and yellow fade on mine. Would love to watch another gasser!! Jody

Do you have the same problem that I do, that you have to explain yourself when you are taking the bottles of polish out to check the colors in good light, I really get some strange looks sometimes.

Lownslow Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 How many bottle of nailpolish to paint one car? Thin it with lacquer thinner? one with the thinner i use because its a 3:1 ratio and it sprays out beautifully. i use Acrylic Enamel thinner i breaks it down better than laquer.
