To each his/her own I happen to like it!! I could actually see it as a "tribute" model offered by Porsche to recall where the inspiration for the modern car originated . Not all Porsches are fire-breathing high-horsepowered monsters.

Not my genre but ther's a kind of harmony, balance, the game work.

Just a tech. curiosity: how kind of clear would cure and be ready for sandpaper in few minutes also in a dehydrator? Thanks, not only curiosity to be honest

The silver/clear are Tamiya TS gloss aluminum and TS clear. The first coats were airbrushed, the final coat of clear was straight from the spray can. The first light coats were able to be sanded in well under an hour. I used 3200 grit micromesh to wetsand the color coats. Generally I wetsand the top coat w/3600 or 4000 and then hit w/Tamiya coarse, regular, and finish compounds.

In thin coats it dries very rapidly, especially w/the dry heat of a dehydrator. I can wetsand a heavy wet coat somewhere between 2-3 hours after application. If I did this w/o the dehydrator it would take overnight.

Mhhhh, I'm not 100% persuaded but I have to believe you seeing your results. I love the TS13 too but I leave to cure for weeks, yep the day after it's dry at touch but to my experience if I polish it an appreciable orange peel come out next days... well I have to try, first to wetsand any coat and than to purchase a dehydrator, thanks a lot.
