Well, I finally decided to strip and repaint a car for the first time. I've only painted a couple of cars. I have never decaled a complete livery. This car was originally the Jeff Burton Cat livery from SCX. Some of the decals were a bit stubborn, but after about a 36 hour bath in the rubbing alcohol we got it done. The decals are from Jim Heller. It's not perfect, but I'm pleased.

Thanks guys! I enjoyed doing it. So much so in fact, I have a couple more cars taking the 91% alcohol bath for the other two sets of the Jim Heller decals I've got. I'm going to have to order more, I think I'm addicted now! :D

Was wondering about his decals as I saw he had a TON on ebay for good prices. Good to say they worked, will probably buy some for the two bodies I took the decals off of and spray bombed white.

Managed to get another car done. This was the livery Harvick drove to a win at Richmond in 2014.
