1956 Ford Victoria

Got this catastrophy ready for the shelf, had some serious problems with crazing and ghostlineing.
Was trying out a new paint brand, CRC spray bombs and will never ever use them on styrene again!
Mind you I did not use any abrasives stronger then 400 grit, but it looks more like I've draged it along the pavement instead!



After some heavy sanding, thin layers of more paint and a good rub down I kind of saved it. The decals is there to cover up the bad spots in the paint job. Was planned to have a two-tone finish but as the layers kept building up this is what it ended up as.
Finally I got it kind of sorted out and this is how it turned out!

Looks really good to me, especially considering the paint issues you had. I think it's nice not to be 2 tone.
