thanks, it's called klean-strip ks-3 premium, it cuts through layers it's supposedly the most powerful, and it works in less than 15 minutes

You need the thick blue gloves. They can withstand most junk. We used them in school, and were usin alot stronger chemicals. Are you gonna primer the body? Keep up the awsome progress.

[n2oinblood]

yeah i got the orange ones, there speacially made for stripping paint. yes i'm going to do a coat of black primer then go over it with like a gloss black or something.

[TheBenzon]

ok im going to buy that stuff as soon as i save up some money to start a new project. Keep it up

[n2oinblood]

i've offically finished the spoiler holes on the trunk and the holes from the mirrors. i was just looking at the body one last time before i painted it and realized that there were fake cut outs of tailights on the back so i broke out the bondo and filled those and also filled some lines up. all i have to do is sand those down then it's time for paint.
i have sand these down:


and i'm done with these:

great progress

[n2oinblood]

ok, i'm just letting everyone know that this project is still in progress!!! things basiccally stopped with the car when i started school but i finally found some time to do a few things with it, i've got the trunk fully painted, i removed the passenger seat, custom made diamond plate for where the pass. seat was and put a nos bottle there, and i just finished sanding the bondo, primed the body and layed down the first coat of black. hopefully the body itself will turn out as good as the trunk did. soon to come after i get some money and go to home depot i am to finish the lambo doors completely and paint them. i will probably be buying another one of these models for parts just becasue i lost so much of them. thanks and wish me luck on the paint!!

[n2oinblood]

finally got the pictures uploaded.





i still have to paint and cut the doors and i'm going to buy a whole other model to get the headlights off of and get a few other things off, then it will be finished.

Whoah, nice car man, look like drift machine I like it!

[n2oinblood]

thanks man, it's not done yet but it's the first model i've kept up on, usually i drop a model and move to the next one but i was feeling this one.

If you paint it a cobalt blue it would look insane with chrome rims. My Rx-7 is a dark purple with metallic flame and looks cool. I put gold wheels on it since this picture. P.S. Can you post a tutorial and pictures on how to do the lambos? The tutorial on the forum doesn't have pictures.

[n2oinblood]

sure as soon as i get the cut-off blades for the dremel and the extra model i'll post a tutorial on how the lambo doors work

[n2oinblood]

wheres thebenzon at?? i haven't talked with him since i started this project

[Jeppe]

nice work man .. the only thing i would do is take that giant NOS tank out of the back and put it in the passenger seat instead of the small one

[TheBenzon]

Thanks for taking my idea now it looks like its ready to hit the streets. VERY VERY VERY NICE. And dubrus2 was right the DIECAST car modeling section is dieing
