2158peterg 4 Report post Posted March 25, 2017 This is my first build in quite a while a Lotus 30 body from the 60's on an MJK GT chassis the original chassis was too badly damaged to fix (so far) the body needed lots of putty and sanding so it's a bit rough Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2158peterg 4 Report post Posted March 26, 2017 I have 1/24 kit wheels similar to american racers to sand down a bit and black wash. It's good to build slot cars again after building rc planes for a while 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2158peterg 4 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 I used tamiya clear enamel as I couldn't find acrylic but have some now. Mixed one part paint to two parts thinners and sprayed at around fifteen psi. I'm no great painter but very happy with the result Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
