Re: Ferrari Testarossa in Progress....

Finally my metal decals are here....after a long wait. I can start my clear coat on the Ferrari Testarossa after applying the decals.







Meanwhile my 100% done Ferrari 575M after the decals.

Re: Ferrari Testarossa in Progress....

My testarossa is just a step to heaven and it slip and went right to hell... First time in my car modeling life, this kind of incident happened. After the clear coat...everything was perfect and a gust of wind just blow. Just that one second, i saw the piece of newspaper covering my testarossa. The rest of the parts were ok. And now need to do all over again..... Back and side of the Testarossa is fine, only the roof and front part.





The worst part... roof...



The back is fine...

Re: Ferrari Testarossa in Progress....

Oh No!!!
I dropped my Jaguar XJR 9LM in the dirt after I clearcoated it and managed to fix the problem without painting the whole body? Could you just re-paint the roof and hood?

The clear coat paint is wet when the car is covered by newspaper. The roof and the front paint smear and there's newspaper print on the car I need to sand again....

Re: Ferrari Testarossa in Progress....

Dear all...thanks for your concern I managed to fix back the Testarossa! A lot of sanding due to uneven smear paint on the roof. Another layer of red were put on. Will make sure there's no newspapers around tomorrow when i spray the clear coat













* I did not remove the decals is because i will add on another layer of the same decal and it will help the logo to look protruding.

Yeah, me too, I wanna know!

I had to repaint my first enzo's hood because I dropped it once on carpet after painting, and a second time after I snagged it getting up. Live and learn I guess.
