Hi,
I de-chromed my wheels; will spray go on wheels ok or should they be hand painted?
I noticed the wheels have a slight sheen to them so I will light sand them and then prime.
Thx
Alfred

As long as you arent cheap, buy a decent can of primer and paint. :grinno:

Hi Mike,
Thx for replying.
I am using straight Tamiya paints/primer now for all body work.
I am having a hard time learning all the lingo of paint products.
I ruined my Fujimi R33 and ordered another one, lucky for me it was only 1200 yen.
I took a step back and now I am painting a Revell Z06 (practice w/ Tamiya paints). Tamiya paints and Testors enamels are so different.
It will be worth it though when I get this down.
Wise man say, better to ruin Revell than Fujimi kits. :lol2:
Did I tell you I am doing all this just to have ref. material for a series of Skyline art I will be doing. :iceslolan

Yes, I heard this was Ref. for you S/D stuff. As a matter of fact you said something in S/D about it and I made fun of your cheap primer use. :lol:
Give me a little while Ill type up some paint lingo translations, I should be able to help being that I am an automotive painter.
