Coffee anyone?????


It's time to paint the extras (light buckets, tailpipes, ferrari symbol, wiper) and once again I had to figure out a way to paint them and bring them home without them getting wrecked. So I glued the parts tree to a piece of wood, glued that to a coffee cup lid and then glued the lid to a piece of corian for weight. It worked perfect.





And time in the paint booth means the second color.....Orange. I was initially very disappointed with the results. I could still see the black and I ended up spraying the orange a bit thick. I figured I would just let it be and see what happened when it dried.



Coming home under cover.



But when I got it home and took off the tape the only real disappointment was the poor tape. Some orange bled through but the areas that looked thick at first seemed to settle down as it dried and I can live with it. I may redo some of the black when I do the front grills but a little wet sanding may take care of most of the seepage.






Q & C welcome.
