I stripped this down last night to start on a custom since for the time being everyone will be in a Gulf or Austria 917K. I have to give Carrera credit and more credit. First, the paint is thick!!! I peeled off like the rubber top layer of old pudding. I would imagine that this will stand tall against the pesky gaurdrail rubs. Normally in a 91% alky bath I can brush off the paint in 45 mins. The paint did peel off easily but the decaled pieces were a little tougher and required a finger nail to break it up a bit. So I really have to hand it to them, the paint work on all of their cars are great but the last GT3 and this seem to really stand out to me.
