1967 Plymouth GTX

[cobraman]

I haven't been hitting the bench much lately but managed to make a little progress on my next project. This car will become part of a diorama later when done. There will not be any detail done to this and the hood is glued ( no engine ) no chassis detail as it will be glued down to the diorama. So far I have the paint done. It is Fathom Green. Still looking for the best way to make the windows "fogged" up.

What kind of diorama will this car be used for?

[cobraman]

It's going to be two teens going at it ( you won't see anything nasty ) with the windows fogged up at a drive in with the speaker post next to it and a speaker hanging from the window. That's the plan anyway.

I've seen something called "frost paint".I THINK it was at Hobby Lobby,it might even be a Testor product.It may be too opaque for your usage but it's worth a look.

[cobraman]

Thanks. I will try and find some.

Sweet. Doesn't look green tho.

[cobraman]

Fathom green, very dark green but I'm sure my photography has something to do with it looking so dark.

I accidentally discovered a way to fog clear styrene that might work for you. Spray the inside of your windows with Testors Dullcote, the stuff used by military/aircraft modelers to flatten a painted finished. Works like a charm!

My old Z/28 was painted that color...

Ray, what ever you use to frost your windows, you should trace your pattern on Tamiya masking tape. Dull cote will do it also. So your doing a teen couple at the drive in, that's a neat idea.. I got back to the bench yesterday. starting to get rid of my building block also...

[cobraman]

Thanks guys. Tried the Dullcote but it just doesn't seem to have the effect I am looking for. Too transparent even after 3 coats. Going to keep experimenting.

I was blowing out an interior, of a finished model, & some of the liquid shot out. It fogged the windshield, badly. I was able to fix it, with Future. If you hold the can upside down & spray, the liquid should come out (I was spraying right side up, btw). It comes out pretty fast, so it's hard to control. Give it a shot (pun intended) & let us know, how it works out.
