Re: Model Car Paint Type

hiroboy.com sells a large variety of paints, however most of these would require an airbrush. If you're going painting the body it would be easier to just buy some aersol cans in a car shop, you might even get close to the Honda colour

Re: Model Car Paint Type

ok, in case you hadn't noticed, I have edited a lot of your posts.

Quite simply, please type properly.
I can understand typos and minor grammatical errors but your habit of capitalising the first letter of every word makes it hard to read your posts.
Stop it.
Type normally.

Re: Model Car Paint Type

I think you'll find that af automatically capitalizes all words in case somebody tries to post in all caps. But either way it's very annoying and impolite.

Edit: or maybe not...

Re: Model Car Paint Type

So are you saying that you are going to ignore my very simple request for you to not hit that shift key so often and to type normally?

DM, I am seriously impressed with your patience. No kidding.
I'd have been banning and blocking IPs several posts and edits ago
Chapeau bas!

I brought it up for the reasons I have mentioned:
i) that it makes it hard for people to read your posts clearly
ii) as such it is against stated forum guidelines


I have asked three times for you to post normally, which I don't think is unreasonable as after all, it only requires you to not do something
i.e hit that shift key
which you have thus ignored. Also, you have edited posts which I had corrected into their original forms.
And you're right, this isn't a big thing but you're the one making an issue out of it.
I made a very simple request and you respond by showing some attitude.

Once again, please re-edit the posts that I had previously corrected and also remove the offensive language from the Reason for Editing note.

Dude, are you for real?
You came here for help, think you getting any with an attitude like that?
Learn to follow the rules or GTFO. Simple as that.
