Re: Super Clod build with a few mods

Dang painting! My final coat orange peeled! Aargh! I should have left this thing the molded white. Any areas that didn't orange peel? Wet sand with 1 billion grit and some rubbing compound to even it out/shine it up. Watch the high spots/raised details. Or there's the oven cleaner strip and start o...

Re: Bored? Come To The Chit / Chat Thread

Just a little rant I needed to get off my chest, about the epitome of the luck I have been having lately. Sounds a lot like my usual endeavors. I need to change the oil in the truck. Back truck out of garage, but to get to my tools I have to clean off the bench, but before I can clean the bench, I'...

Re: Tamiya Sand Scorcher - 2010 Reissue

I actually did my letter with a toothpick and tamiya paint. https://www.rc10talk.com/download/file.php?id=171967 Those tires came out great, nice work. I'll see how the paint pen does, and then try the tooth pick if I can't get the pen to work. Is there anything that easily cleans the paint off the...

Re: Things that irritate you

eBay's "Flintstones" vertical scroll! How many of the same items can I scroll thru before being "quite" annoyed? FFS!, just display the sh*t the seller has and leave the illusions to David Copperfield (notice I didn't say David Blaine).

But wait! There's more!........GFY!

Yeah it's been there for awhile. Price seems fair given it's "rarity". Seller "says" it works too (iirc).

Re: Can a single tamiya spray paint cover the whole body?

Hi all Where I live its hard to get a hold of the tamiya spray paint cans (or any lexan sprays). I managed to get a hold of 2 cans... (white and blue) I need to be very careful with the amount I use as these 2 cans need to be enough for 2 cars (1/10 avg body size) Would you guys say that a single s...

Re: Things that irritate you

Come to find out, I have to highlight each and every message individually to delete it. Why is there no "empty folder" or "select all" feature? This! Closest I can get is using four fingers at the same time to select four at a time. Dude, we're getting old...I sound like my Dad....

Re: Your top Three Vintage Keepers (by manufacturer)

Aside from a few basket cases and parts piles the only cars I have completed or mostly completed/in progress are these. All "shelfers" TRX-1 TRX-1 SWB TCP LWB But those are the keepers. I know it's silly to say, but I think I will be done obsessing and/or chasing pristine TRX series based ...
