what is the most number of times you have had to strip down a model due to a stuff up in the paint or a bad color choice?


mine so far is having the 350Z 'swimming' 3 times due to the above factors :frown:





anyone been in a similar position and how did it come out in the end?

My current project (ITR) has been stripped 4 times and will need to be stripped again. I am experimanting with it and just can't get satisfying results so far. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/sadwavey.gif

Funny you should mention a 350Z, because that is exactly the kit that is giving me the fits. Ive striped it 2 times now. (crossing fingers) Ive started working on it again and hope to be done soon....

Sofar, I 've never had to strip a model, and I m proud of it... :smile:
it does happen I fuck up a bit by poishing too much through the paint, but then I simply wash it and put a thin coat over it and voila ?

I always end up redoing my old models that I made when I didn't have as much skill in modeling. I think some of my cars have been stripped 6 or 7 times to the point that the plastic became brittle and crazed. :eek:

when I mess it up, I strip it once. Then I try to understand why it went wrong and try not to repeat the error a second time. When it's dust particals, I just sand and respray. I just hate stripping and it's the very last solution that I'll do.

3 times already for the C-West FD3S i'm building.. first time i bought some dulux spray paint and the paint turns into a mess when i try to polish it.. :frown:
then stripped the paint, repaint using a different colour (duplicolor this time) ... and the paint ended up peel off like wallpaper! then repaint again using the same colour and it still peels off (but to a less extent)!!! :banghead:

must be something wrong with the primer i'm using but then i've used the same spray can doing the Mugen Beat and it has no such problem :confused: i'll wait a while so i can regain the interest and repaint it again..

My Midnight Purple Skyline R33 has been done 4 times now, for one reason or another.
But it's finally OK

one time so far on my prelude and it's been a pain. I haven't touch the car since. I painted it mica red but when i took the tape off the indow trim it pull some of the paint so i had to start all over again. :mad: I think I might go with gunmetal this time around.

Only 2 for me, it was my 69 Camaro pro-stock. First it was the color, second because it got a little messed up. :D Haven't painted it yet.

glad to hear that I'm not the only one to have these problems.

And if you posted here that you have never had to strip a model then u are just asking for trouble:smile:
