If you need some, just tell me what color you need and I'll send you a tube large enough to do your GT-R.

Tazdev; Ring around your local Toyworlds and see if they have a toy called Fuzz Art. It is in a red and yellow box and has little plaster animals you paint glue over and cover with..........The colour Flocking of your choice from a selection of about 8 colours with a shaker provided to apply it no less. I paid $14.99 for mine before xmas here in Aus. Associated Retailers here in Aus supply the NZ Toyworlds as well so they should have received them. Each container of flocking contains about 5 times the quantity of a Testors Modelmaster container.

I don't know why anyone uses that horrible stuff(flocking) when Scale Motorsport's Faux Fabric is on the market.
