In this video, James talks about some of the BEST ways to clean your die-cast and resin model cars with some simple tools. Keep your model cars looking great with these easy to follow tips!

I do use soft brushes for light dust. Occasionally I do polish my 18 scale models with a very careful light coat of Auto Glym Super Resin polish. It's brilliant for eliminating fine lines. You just have to be careful around decals and things like panel edges.

[@modelcarshouston]

Fantastic advice about the polish! Thank you!

[@manveerghuman5276]

Thanks for the tips!

[@modelcarshouston]

For sure!

[@seoulmansupra]

Awesome little video!

[@modelcarshouston]

Wahoo!

[@Unforgiveness]

if you also do scale model builds, use an airbrush with really low PSI setting to blow the dust if it's too dusty :)

[@modelcarshouston]

Ah yes, perfect idea!!

[@antezalac6374]

Very cool Video..thanks so much

[@modelcarshouston]

No problem!

[@modelcarshouston]

I will make a FUTURE video on how to polish your model cars NEXT! Thanks for watching everyone. 👍

[@hyp3rimag]

Awesome video! Something maybe overlooked/not thought about or maybe it is idk lol but if you can keep 1-2 air purifiers running in your room where you have your cars that will stop most of the dust from even appearing.

[@modelcarshouston]

Absolutely

[@zavier2172]

Hey James, how about little specks of dust INSIDE of 1/64 scale cars? Brands like TLV-N, which have no opening parts and also with bases that cannot be easily removed to access the interior portion.

[@charles9860]

Planning to put a RANTIZ graphene coat to protect from UV also it prevents yellowing the transparent part , what do you think?

[@harsha_raptor]

Nice inital d models in the back!

[@modelcarshouston]

[@danielchang9731]

Sometimes I use tamiya polishing compound Finish to make model cars painting looks even shinier so that it would look even closer to real car.

[@modelcarshouston]

Great idea!!!

[@428garage]

Very Nice 👍 👍 👍

[@ddianno3220]

A few of my 1/18 vintage Camaros have black spots on the chrome wheels that obviously won't come off,looks terrible! I had them on a closet shelf through summer, maybe moisture arrived?then for winter I wrap the cars in soft shirts, removing them in april. Anyone's thoughts, also how to remove the black marks on chrome rims and bumpers.

[@modelcarshouston]

The black marks are probably chrome peel most likely?

[@LynxStart64]

James, how about the paint rash or paint bubble? I have problem with that 😭

[@juc5187]

Please try cleaning brush from TAMIYA, that works really well.

[@modelcarshouston]

Oh nice!!!

[@homie-gtv322]

My girlfriend got mad at me for using her makeup brush. My wife, on the other hand, doesn't mind.

[@modelcarshouston]

LMAO

[@mikethomas4523]

LLAAMMEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@modelcarshouston]

Sorry!

[@huyhuy715]

For anyone want to use my way go to glasses store buy water clean glass and use small soft towel for baby and Little dip it with Soft towel and clean.

[@modelcarshouston]

Thank you for your input and tip!°

[@maskplayer5237]

Can i know the name of that black 1/64 car ?

[@modelcarshouston]

I'm going to assume you meant the reddish dark brown (darker colorized one). That one comes from an Aoshima 1/64 set.

[@maskplayer5237]

Thank you brother ! 🙏🏼💕

[@ahmadhakhimi236]

Its harder to works with brush on 1/64 cars for me.

[@mingyaowu7720]

Tamiya wax to polish

[@muhammadzain7299]

@02:46 Hey does anyone know what that clear plastic case is called? i want to buy some of those clear transparent boxes for my 1:12 Motorcycles

[@modelcarshouston]

It's just an acrylic case. You'd have to get a custom made for 1:12. BBR Models sells cases and bases for 1:12 as well.

[@muhammadzain7299]

@@modelcarshouston You have any idea how will i get them here in Pakistan?? Also can you share me link of the Product? I badly need 5 of them.

[@richardmoore3397]

Hi I'm not being flippant when I say this but leave them in their cases/boxes, personally I think they present themselves much better with the relevant graphics, logos and colour schemes of the original packaging, Rich

[@modelcarshouston]

Absolutely, best option.

[@drivendreamsorg]

I like to foam cannon them

[@modelcarshouston]

Nice
