Marco-- Have you thought about drybrushing with a mix of white and chrome silver? Not sure how it would work, though. Has anybody thought about using Titanium White drybrush over a basecoat of white mixed with a couple drops of blue? I used that as a base on a Crown Vic police car, and it never yell...

How far is it from where the compressor is to your workshop? If it isn't too far, buy an airhose, run it up through the attic, and drop it down inside the wall, where you can connect your regulator and moisture trap, and, more importantly, your airbrush! Or, if you're really ambitious, do it with co...

JC--see if you can locate Castrol Super Clean. It is a purple, super-strong degreaser type cleanser, that will take the paint off of just about anything. Dunno if it is available in Europe, though. You might check at your local parts houses or autop supply stores to see if you can get it there. Just...

I've never had a lot of luck with the 350. for some reason it always fought me. Watch FSM for the advert for the cheap Paasche VL. I don't remember who it was that ran the ad, but I got one a few years ago for less than $50 including shipping. Dixie Art Supply has a great deal on the carded Paasche ...

Devin-- Cut a board to fit your window. Cut a hole in it to pass the exhaust tube through. Seal thoroughly with spray foam and/or duct tape. REMOVE THE WINDOW SCREEN, unless you want a multi-colored circle! Put in window, close tightly, and spray away. If you are worried about air leaks, you can als...

I'm absolutely in love with Tamiya's Extra Thin (the one with the green cap). Other than the fact that it makes my brains run out of my ears, it is good stuff! Oh, and I use the little brush that comes in the bottle. I used to love Ambroid Pro-Weld, but I haven't seen that stuff in ages. Tenax is a ...
