Yep buddy! But the hood has only one small decal on it. 1000 grit wet paper to have a less poor result on the hood. Another challenge ;)

Hi Stingray! You should try grey scotch brite with water and maybe soap for finitions... Apply a spray filler before a new layer of paint (Tamiya products are good) and sand it again (1000/1200 wet paper).

Avoid paint remover on ABS shell... And good luck! :y:

:y: Thanks a lot for your advices Sellig.
After the drying night, The result is not so bad. When they 'll arrive, decals will mask the last faults.





With a good polishing, it should be ok.

It's not just me that thinks the front wheels look like space saver spare wheels then ;)



The paint looks ok but with a lot of orange peel - I think you just need to go a bit slower, it could have been fixed by leaving it to harden properly, flatting it back gently with a high number wet & dry paper, clear coat, more curing & rubbing out :)

:) Yes they are front spare wheeles :D (I need to buy brat ones because ranger ones are unfindable)
This car is a blue orange :( but that's the application of the blue wich was bad. I didn't still found the good dilution nor pressure with my airbrush. I have to make other tests (same with your advices)
With the clear coat, it was better.
Maybe, I use a too small buse. I am thinking to buy another airbrush a little bigger.
Another time, thanks for your advices Jonny. Same if the results aren't very good they are precious advices.

:P A little work on aloy spares. A light polishing. Nicer than a single rebuilding. And that can make me wait the body.
Must I paint the body or a clear coat is enough?????
