Like so many ppl have said, painting the weather strips. I guess for my next project I'll use bare metal foil. That shouldn't allow the paint to bleed through.

Like 64 Chevy said I hate it when pre chromed parts come with too much tree holding them onto the frame and then you have a big bare plastic shape left in the neat chrome, also hate that the closest model shop from me now is 1 hour train trip away, last thing I hate is like Antonio, running out of supplies.

I hate dust.
I hate sanding through to the primer.
I hate the license plates that come in kits.
I hate snapping window pillars. :o
I hate having to strip the paint off a model.
