Hi guys,
After a long break from modelling I decided to jump back in to the deep end with a Revell Cheerios Taurus Nascar. Having prepped the body i'm now ready for painting but I am undecided as the correct method to do this. I want to paint the outside of the car yellow but also paint the inside light grey. How is this done normally? Do you paint the inside of a Nascar body? Any info would be great. Thanks!

I paint the body first, and if you mean the interior of the body, then paint that second. Make sure you use masking tape if u spray the inside.

Paint the inside first, (tremclad light grey is a perfect match if you can find it)
then tape it off with blue or green painters tape, and paint the body.

I'd paint the inside first, too. 1. Because any mistake will be more easily hidden, and 2. you can just lay the thing on the primered roof while painting and not worry much over marring a nice, glossy paintwork.
