[@shaunmostert1585]

Your body detailing is getting very intricate, With GOOD results...

[@njcivicwagon1]

Great paint job as usual. Enjoy watching your builds

[@romain4759]

You are a magician!

[@jasonpark1574]

Enjoying this build and all your previous builds. Wet sand and polish the paint up to 12000 grit BEFORE clear coat. Then wet sand and polish the clear coat. Lots of extra work,but IMO this is the only way to get rid of those teeny tiny scratches

[@gigi1970Francesco]

very gooddddddddddd perfect job

[@ScaleModelHQ]

Nice save on that roof. Lots of work but definitely worth it and looks great.

[@danjohnson7170]

Try using water through your airbrush to remove the polish from panel lines. Works for me and no chance of brush scratches.

[@michcik_3209]

Build as next model Pagani Huayra (Aoshima). It look great :D.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I don't have one.

[@Claypoool]

Michcik950 send him one!! video modeling channel did one and it came out great!!!!! only problem with his channel it's in French

[@Zockm]

Have you tried using polishing wax to get rid of the very fine scratches in the end? It might work.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I have tried th 3 stage Gravityr color compound, I also tried the 3 stage Meguiars compound, and also the scratchX and even comandand scratch remover.

[@iancameron1662]

could you show how to paint letters on tires and make red lines also. thanks

[@davidgillyon5863]

Great finish on the paintwork. I often use the Micromesh polishing cloths from 3000 grade up to 12000 grade and then compounds, and always there are left very very fine scratches if you look closely at the clear; I do not think these can be totally eliminated.

[@blacktemplar420]

Do you have any tips for the headlights? I am having trouble with the small LEDS.

[@krzysztofmolecki996]

Mayby buy ?

[@texasbasementbuilds4543]

Need to watch the rotary polisher ...I burned a windshield one time when the pad got to dry...

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

A dry bit should not matter, its the heat from the friction ;)

[@texasbasementbuilds4543]

yes I know...but if it didn`t get dry it wouldn`t got burned..lol..I know still my fault..lol

[@dustinlisner7405]

+The Scalemodeling Channel would you ever build a older American car such as a camaro

[@jamesunger6892]

I've never used Zero Paints, but am planning on using them on a Benetton B188 F1 car. It's a 4-color scheme. So how long do you leave between coats? And, how long should I wait to mask off for the next color, considering I'll be masking over what was (just) previously painted? Also, I saw another guy on youtube testing the white primer against just applying the (white) paint, and the paint on its own did a better job (no orange peel) -- what's your experience using Zero Paints without a primer? Last, can regular Walmart paint thinner be used for airbrush clean up (Zero Paints says it must be a cleaner containing Toluene, but I believe Toluene is very toxic if I remember my MSDSs). Thanks in advance for your sage help.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

10 to 15 minutes between coats on light colors. atleast 1 or 2 hours before you mask it. I do not advise not using primer. The paint can act strange and bite in to the plastic, or leave wierd marks shown through the paint. I don't know what thinners those from walmart are, so you could try and see.

[@spikespiegel5760]

Please do Toyota Supra. It's my favourite ride

[@kylesagun156]

Maciej Drewniak who doesn't love the supra

[@henryprophete4879]

do you change the polishing bit for each compound?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Yes i do.

[@jaclaar42]

I'm building a rally car so it has a lot of decals. I just finished my color coats so I'm wondering if I should put the decals then clear or clear then decals. any tips?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Clear it first, then apply the decals, and clear it again.

[@caudleryan123]

Do you plug your rotary tool directly into the power converter? Or do you have to have a drill for the attachment?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I put the extention i have in my hand in the proxxon micromot. that plugs in to a power converter that plugs in to the wall.

[@techshow7956]

Loving your vids, what's your favourite model you have made?

[@davidgillyon5863]

Just noticed it looks like you have darkened the panel lines and door shuts; am I correct and when did you do this?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

You are Correct. I used Tamiya Panelline accent color

[@Claypoool]

The Scalemodeling Channel after clear or before?????

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Chris Claypool both are possible

[@Dillusionz]

why u did not sand and polish the whole body. I tried using tamiya 3 polishing compound but it does not have the shine on it worst than just the gloss coat only. i sand it using 1000 all the way to 10,000 after the clear coat 3 layers. Am i doing it wrong or something. I do not have the polishing machine. cheers.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

1000 is way to rough to start with. you need to start with 2500 or higher. And even that is still pretty rough.

[@Dillusionz]

i followed your tutorial starting with 1500 grid work all the way up. I do not have 1500 so i start with 1000. my model look like part 2 of the polishing. like few scratches and a little flat. i saw the part 3 and after suddenly so shiny. what did you do?

[@Dillusionz]

why u did not sand and polish the whole model. wont it look even shiny?

[@Dillusionz]

?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Daryl Chew only the roof needed fixing. A waste of time to spend a whole day polishing something that does not need it

[@claudioparedesz5381]

maaan do the toyota mr2 aw11 and I will share the shit out of your video!

[@kylesagun156]

claudioAw11 SC why don't you share it anyways? Love your car tho! Me myself I am an aw20 person but my cousin LOVES those aw11s

[@Dillusionz]

Using this method compare to the video where you teach how to polish using spray can. The end result for this is it the same as the one where you teach how to polish using spray can.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Yes, The end result of polishing paints is mostly the same ;)

[@Dillusionz]

Why in this video you go through the trouble of using so many different kinds of sand paper?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

to save some time, if i would start with 12000 grit it would take 4 times longer.

[@Dillusionz]

I just follow the way you sand in this video will do right. the other tutorial will take a longer time compare to this.

[@Dillusionz]

What happen if my paint has orange peel how do i fix it? i assume sanding.what grid will you be using and the process to fixing it.
