Advice on painting & decals.
#9
When doing my paint i sanded down to bare surface material on areas that needed filling/repairing. Let it go off. Wet and dry sand it till smooth. I found that areas that didnt need repairing just removing the laquered finish was enough. Used a coat of primer on filler and bare plastic/metal. Then the colour of choice. Giving a rub over with very very very fine wet & dry (use wet) between coats and a couple layers of laquer to finish. I applied any decals...etc before laquering but that was personal choice.18 months on still looking good.
