I get my models from Zellers, and there used to be a store here that hade models, but they dont anymore. I could go to Barrie. Can you tell me some stores and where they are, I would appreciate it

And I wont use masking tape

Ok, when you paint the body black where the window is going to glue, how do you do that without the black running and looking crappy after. Or would better Tamiya glue do the trick?

Sorry! Don't know what you mean!

Are you referring to painting the window rubbers?

In the Kozlov Centre on Bayfield Street there is a place called "Race Buffs" where I go for most of my modelling stuff. It's a car only store, but they also have posters and 1:18 cars and stuff too.

BTW, shouldn't you be in school right now??

Any glueing you want to do where you dont want paint to run or get messed up...i always use Micro Kristal Clear.
It well dry clear and is good for windows/headlights.

I am in school right now. I'm in a computer class, and I'm done the assignment, so I do this. My teacher is standing behind teh guy who sits next to me right now (12:08)

I did mean the window rubbers, the paint would 'melt' and the colour below would come out. I will use that Micro Kristal Clear.

Thanks for the shop, i will go there asap.

Thanks for the help, all
