No problems at all, it works great and cuts your building time tremendously. Both those cars were built in less than two weeks.
The primer sanded off on the front, where there's the lip on the hood. The only bad thing about the F40 is the sharp edges on it, making sanding quite hard in places.

With your last colour coat, do you make it thin to allow for the clear, so the two don't run? And doing it this way, you can only get 1 coat of clear, so I take it that's all you need?
