Progress - Mercedes SLK AMG Black :)

[Mr_Benz]

Hi !

This is my first post at automotive forums.
I'm from Poland /Europen Union/, I live in Warsaw city and my name is Michal.

And this is my black SLK AMG from Fujimi

It will be all black, with black & buff interior and magnesium wheel (Model master metalizer)

Interior- I will paint with tamiya XF-57 Buff and black matt (probably Humbrol or Revell), "Body" first had sprayed Tamiya primer and has painted Model Master Gloss Black paint (3 coat - 1 mist and 2 wet).

I'v used Revell Spray Gun (very sipmle and ordinary airbrush, but my favorite) and for details of interior (for small amound of paint or for metalizer) I'v used Aztec A320 airbrush.

I decided to separate head restraint:



and both seats:



and wheels - painted Magnesium metalizer and polished (left wheel)
Looks very, very well !



My previous SLK and new SLK (after sanding primer)





During painting "mist coat" :
(the bottle - I'v used bottle for testing paint and airbrush)



and my "anti-dust cover"



Shine, clear and black as coal - before polishing and apply wax (now "body" is drying (probably for week...))



Chrome-silver paint for headlight



and its interior - now is only painted with Tamiya XF-57 (buff), but the next step will masking and paint with matt black paint.



What do You think about my firts post ?

If my hobby store hadn't closed 35 minutes ago, I would be there buying the paint for the wheels. Those look awesome! My Z06 needs some mag wheels That's some great painting too!

black paint looks cool

[TanKaBoY]

VERY NICE!!
Are you going to lower it?

[Mr_Benz]

Hehehehe.... (smiling)

Are You learning Polish now everyone ? ; -))
I'm startled...

Thanks for nice words (in Polish also ;-) )

Wheels looks more interesting than in picture, magnesium metalizer was ONLY ONE for this black SLK. Chrome silver was bad idea for this color of body.

Johnnie - lakier mial wygladac super i nawet sie udalo...
(well... paint should be look great, and looks great !)

TanKaBoy - no, I will not lower it, mayby next time - I have one more SLK and probably I will make it as a "speedsteer" version.
