Getting ready to paint the Bill Elliot 1995 Thunderbat
Not sure if this car was gloss black or more of a semi gloss. Looking at the photos didn't look real shinny, but not a flat black.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Joe

When I saw the car I recall it as gloss. That's the way I built it anyway!!

I know this is a lot late lol, but the original car was not glossy. Saying that though, I like the gloss better personally. Fantastic work!

If you are using kit or questionable quality decals, Powerslide has a set of these coming out.
