That's one good looking Willys! I really like the paint, too--I've got to get me some of that and try it on something. Did you use a color base coat? Again, congrats on a great model!

Thx again for great comments :D ...

"Coverage issues :wacko: " know what you mean...Here's my 5 cents tip...

No base coat, but many, many...many, "thin" coats to build a "deep &... even" effect, believe me one heavy coat wont give you the great result I got on this "Fat fendered" gasser.

"One coat", like Testors advertise on the can is not the best way to achieve a perfect result, (at least in my case when i use those Lacquer Kustom colors on my models), maybe on a "skate board" :P but surely not on a 1/25th scale car body, you definitely need to spray many thin "dust" coats to achieve a nice coverage & "even" metallic finish, let the paint layers dry a week to assure that metallic pigments wont "rundown" when it will be time to "shoot" the clear coats...again thin coats ;)
