Jeff Johnston Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 I only use the white. The reason is that you can paint it. The paint dries onto the embossing powder in a flatter sheen than on the styrene. Here is my 65 Mustang with painted embossing powder.

Here is my 65 Mustang with painted embossing powder. That looks really nice and . . . texturey... Say, I notice you have a mat on top of the driver's side floor - the one thing I always missed was the nicely engraved mats that are in most cars (they are hidden by the EP - oh sure, you can mask around it, but then it looks like the mat is below the top of the carpet). Where did you get yours? Edited March 19, 2015 by fseva
Tom Geiger Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 My set of powders that I ordered from eBay came over the weekend. I'm not going to get a chance to build for a few weeks. I'm kinda busy with another project for the hobby! :-)
Sidney Schwartz Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Gawd... I'm ready for the handcuffs, matey! You can expect a visit from our enforcement officer...

Where did you get yours? The mat is just sheet styrene with some texture lines made with the back of a #11 blade. Low tech HAHA.
