Ok the car is completely stripped and is also in the Food Dehydrator so the Black Primer could dry well. I will then spray some Ultramarine Blue.

Ok i got the Ultramarine Blue layed on nicely. A little weird effect turned out in the door that also came out in the previous paint. Seems like the plastic ont his kit doesn't go to well with automotive paints. The plastic is really awkward.

I painted the seats Tamiya Acrylic Flat Red and detailed it with a Rapidigraph pen usin Black India Ink. Im still waiting for the decal for the seats.

I seriously suggest Brake Fluid. Doesn't have to be expensive, mine costed 2.87 for 32 fl oz. It strips quickly.

BTW: This is my new screenname

Meh, maybe tomorrow since i have the day off. This week school and extra work have really torn me apart. Im in a desperate need of sleep! I have though been slowly painting the Spoon Mirrors since i have had to strip them 3 times because for some reason when i try painting them they would get wrinkles, so i have been spraying light coats on. I must be on my 4th already. Still needs about 2 more light coats to match the hue of the body. The body received like 5 light coats. I have noticed that light coats give you way better result than heavy coats. And you run less risk of screwing up.

i like these seats much better

ImolaEK · #44 11-11-2004, 01:38 PM

Wheels are done. Painted the blue trim with Letra-Set marker. The suspension is almost done also. Just have one more wheel to mount.
I hope to get the decals from HLJ today clear coat both my Integra and this Civic tomorrow and hopefully receive my new model kits i bought from EBAY Monday
