Hi I sterted to paint the first model i have built since i was 12 and now at 34 i am really wanting to get into it again as i am house bound since being hurt in the Army. I started to airspray (for the first time)THE body of a Williams 13b. I noticed a few fine drips. not big at all, And after leaving it to dry in a box 2 or 3 hairs have just stuck to the suffice. Any ideas any one. can i wEt sand it or dry sand it with 1200 grit and just go over very loosly and spray on a new top coat?? Its enamell paint. Thanks any one. Sandy

Yeah, should be able to light-sand back, if there is enough colour, you could clear coat and/or polish. It will look great!

Also make a better box to keep freshly painted parts in.:)

That's where I was going to point ya, man! to Alex's (Spider) tutorial section, they're great to learn from and get re-inspired in building! Welcome back to the hobby!

This is the best forum for modelers that I've ever come across!

WELCOME BACK
