Tamiya 2-part epoxy(smooth type) and Squadron green.

thanks

Tamiya 2-part epoxy(smooth type) and Squadron green.

You actually can do something with the Squadron Green ? It dry too quickly and never get me a smooth surface.

I suggest Tamiya Epoxy Putty Quick Type

Btw, your question is answered in the FAQ (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?postid=579044#post579044)

You actually can do something with the Squadron Green ? It dry too quickly and never get me a smooth surface.

Yes, but I only use it for filling small areas and things like pin marks from molding and the like, it's not that great for larger areas.
For body kits, it's good for final smoothing, otherwise epoxy or similar is better.

Quite strange.. maybe mine wasn't "fresh" or something

Tamiya Basic putty is way better than the squadron tube I have

right now im in the process of making a widebody tamiya 180sx.. im still on the body work after working on it for half a year off and on... but i used/ am using tamiya epoxy putty for the majority, and just i think it's tamiya basic putty, or just the regular tamya putty for all my other work... it's turning out ok, it's just i never work on it.. hopefully it will be pretty sweet when im done...

I'm using Tamiya quick type to do my body work.

oh, and Rtuned, your putty work is incredible.. specialy the Supra.. when will there be any new progress ? You really should consider making a Full body resin body of this one.. I'm sure lot of people that would buy it (I would :lol: )

:screwy: well i did not no witch one was the putty to use :mad: thats why i ask

To know which one to use, there is the answer in the faq (i gave you the link before)

for body kit, Epoxy is best

:screwy: well i did not no witch one was the putty to use :mad: thats why i ask

Vric is quite right, there is a section in the FAQ on this, you could also do a forum search and find a lot of info on different putties.

I do believe, however, your question has been answered in this thread :)

This may be a bit wierd but I often use 'plastic padding'.

Over here it can be quite difficult to get Tamiya etc except for mail order which can take some time. So along side my Tamiya putty I always have 2 types of 'Plastic Padding' around.

For those unfamiliar with the name it's basically 2 part auto filler. The types I use are the normal auto filler, greeny colour when used but more often the leak repair variety, black when mixed, vary fast drying so I use about half the recommended hardener, very strong and easy to sand and work with. It is also friendly to the plastic, ever noticed how a thick area of Tamiya can damage the model and not dry very well in the middle? No such problems with this stuff. Also, as with my last Supra, I sometimes use different materials in the build such as styrene, sheet aluminium (nice sharp edge around arches etc) etc. This stuff sticks well to all of it.

I LOVE IT!!

i have used the plastic padding on my shelby but it did not want to stick there... it wanted to fall of when i started to sand it... but it might have had with my work before i started with the putty.

LOLOLOLOLOL! HAHAHAHHA! THAT'S MY COUSIN! (toyota michael) He's only 10..

He doesn't even look in the FAQ because he doesn't know what it is, and how to use it. He will be asking questions very often about stuff that are in the FAQs.. and the questions will be VERY noobie like.. so.. thanks for being nice to him.

looks like you droped the dime on him. You do know you have to be like 13 to join, now he''s banned. what a great cousin you are....J/k

Yep, I've already discussed it with Digital_Eclipse by PM.
An unfortunate situation, but laws are laws and forum guidelines are in place for a reason.
