So looking at the kit I completed in 2008, I painted the body gloss black (rattlecan) and the decals went on with no color bleed through.
And as far as I recall, there weren't any issues with the f ... |

I'm a plastic modeler, I paint the parts you can't see.
And SWMBO got me a t-shirt that says exactly that.

Really hoping Mike and Powerslide do some Bobby Labonte modified decals for the new modified kits that Salvinos/Wes's Model Cars are putting out. His Cookout #25 from last year (2022) and the #25 Coo ... |

Actually from the research I've done looking for images of the car, the Newman car color looks like the old Kodak yellow (School Bus yellow) which is available through Duplicolor. It has the bit of ... |

Also, we're there ever any pre-orders for these? I don't remember see anything about them prior to them popping up on Mike's site.
Mike's the best dealers around. I'm pretty sure he doesn't do pre ... |

Thanks all, I may have to look into the ScaleFinishes option and use my airbrushes. Not finding any equivalent bottle paints and Scale Finishes comes in a 2 oz. bottle, so that should account for any ... |

Hi all,
Getting back into the mood to build NASCAR again. But I usually built/build older cars (pre-2005 before they Revellogram stopped making good glue kits). So I was excited when Salvinos cam ... |

I have a 2004 Dodge Intrepid (Newman) where the chassis has seen better days. I want to keep the body and redo the chassis. I figure that it being a Revellogram kit, that the chassis across the diff ... |

In the past I went with MM aluminum and a toothpick.
But keep in mind that all the lugnuts are yellow or pink/purple since it makes them more visible to the tire changer. I'd recommend going with ... |

Also, Testors Fluorescent Green (1174 in the square bottle) looks to be a close match to the Pactra Rally Green (RC58). Haven't done a spoon test to see how they match.

According to what info I've saved off over the years, Model Master Rally Green should match well to the original color. Which is probably under the Pactra brand and not Model Master.

The 2005 NASCAR Taurus kit is NOT the same as the 2000 kit. According to Scalemates, Revell used/introduced new tooling for the Taurus kit in 2005 which would be accurate for the 2004-2005 Fords. Th ... |
