resin help

[evilone]

K on a different forum a guy posted up a site for buying models. Well i searched through it and found a couple hearses i have never seen. This is a two parted question.

1: how is this company in dealing with? Are they slow or fast shippers?Are they carless in packing the item you buy or do they pack it to last through the abuse?

2: how is this resin? Is it thick and hard to work with or is it easy? Is it over priced junk or worth every penny?

heres the company selling the resin

Kevin, I have not bought from rocketfin so I can't say good or bad about them, but I did buy a resin kit from the caster Ben Packaz on ebay, and it's best said that it was buildable. If you can do some bodywork, go for it.

how much body work is needed? if its a little then im ok with it but if i gotta redo the whole thing i"ll pass

Actually Kevin, I'm not sure but I think Rocketfin is more of a search and research site rather than a retailer. I'd say if they were selling that hearse, there should have been at least a price or ordering information, and I didn't see either. At least the good thing is you now know it's out there, and I wish you good luck in finding it, I know you love your hearses!

The body was white resin, about the same thickness as stryne, and fairly "pinholess" , but the small details needed cleaning up. That was about 5 or 6 years ago, the caster may have improved with experance. I'd buy again.
