Will do! Thanks.keavdog wrote:Nice recovery. I love painting, but hate the surprises (aka my Jayhawk). It really is a good idea to wash but I often skip/forget. Seems the mold release agents today aren't as much of an issue. I did have an older mustang kit fisheye when the paint went on though. Cary on Lyle!

Re: AMT 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS
And never mind commenting on my build let's get cracking on this one. Got time to lean, got time to clean.
Now that we know that.... What have we learned?...
Re: AMT 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS
I will be getting on with it. . . soon.

Waiting for the planets to align properly. . . and trying to finish up the Airfix P-51D.

Will be getting back with you tomorrow Lyle. It was just nice having a couple of days off from the last few months. Didn't quite know what to do with the time so.......I merely relaxed. lol
Re: AMT 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS
OK, you get a pass for the P51, for now....
Now that we know that.... What have we learned?...
Re: AMT 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS
Whew, that was close.

Well, Joe...it was a comedy of errors. Played with the 350 for a few minutes. I don't care much for it. But, I will keep after it and work with it. Trying to open up the nozzle, the locking ring took a hike. Took 5-10 minutes to find it. I did come across the missing amber wall panels though.
Anyway, here it is. Left side needs some sanding and repaing. See a run on the left front by the hood opening. Otherwise, I can live with it. Get it wet sanded a bit, chrome bits added, it will look fine for the first one.




yep, it tipped over in the booth.


So, Bob...here we are. It will cure out for a couple of days, be ever so lightly wet sanded, touched up and then after another rest, clear coated.
