I had time to pick up my airbrush again and painted my vette for a big NEC race we had last weekend at Area 51 in CT.
I stripped the body with brake fluid and primed it with Tamiya white primer. I used Testors Model Master paint for color and used Patto's decals.
I had intentions of weathering it but never made it back to the paint booth.
Thanks for looking, Glenn

That is great work 32.
I'm curious, using brake cleaner to clean the body / graphics. I've never tried that, is it harder on the body? Other than obvious fumes etc, any precautions when trying that?
thanks

Mike I no longer use brake fluid. Made the body brittle. Just my experience. 90% alcohol.
