And will you post photos? I'm wondering how it looks. I picked up a can today at the LHS. Thinking about it for a Pisano Olds funny car.

Thanks, Lee.

I'll need to do some experimenting. I built a model of the Pisano Olds funny car years ago (almost 20 years ago). It's long gone, but a friend who saw it has been encouraging me to build another. Looking at the photo, it's obvious that I'll need to airbrush it to get that fade. In 1994, I didn't have Google Image Search, so I just used the Slixx instructions for "Pearl orange". Yeah, it's all coming back now. The model turned out pretty nice, but it was my first time using pearl powder. I masked over the pearl not knowing to clear coat it first. I didn't notice the "tiger stripe" effect where pearl was lifted off until after the clear. Bummer. It will look better this time.
