it's very hard to innovate these days because so many talented people post videos. You my young friend have shown me something I've never seen before thank you

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thank you very much!

[@valeriepickens2533]

You just saved my project!! I got very lucky, and bought a Johan 1970 442. This kit is very expensive ( around 160) and because it's a older Johan,...it does have its faults. Not enough detail, molded in seats and suspension, as well as the hood from a Cutlass S and not a 442! I just bought the retooled Revel 71 442 kit for parts, but the front hood tooth between the grill had a 442 emblem on that panel and the 71 has an Oldsmobile emblem! The 71 does come with a decal that looks nice, but nowhere near as realistic as doing it your way!! Thank you so much,...you just earned a subscriber!

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thank you! I have a few other JoHan olds 442 that I built on this Channel. You may want to search for them.

[@pappytinkers]

Model car garage has a photo etch set for the Revell kit that also comes with the different grills, and all kinds of other goodies that you might want for the Johan kit. Plus the AMT 69 442 chassis with the posable front wheels, fits about perfectly underneath the Johan body. The new Revell kit has an excellent chassis too.

[@modelrestorations]

Great tutorial! That is really an interesting way to do it. I can see were that might be perfect for interior pieces also, like window winders. So often allot of the kits you can barely see the winders and handles. The tape idea to glue the emblem on the side is genius!

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

That's a great idea! Never tried it on interior parts!

[@solarismoon3046]

I already figured this out years ago. I'm glad to see that someone else did too. I only wish that I knew about the super glue and aluminum trick way back when I first started building models. Now I wish I could plate chrome parts. That would be the only part of my repertoire that I don't yet have for my skill set. I make my own models and parts but anyone can do that now especially with the advent of 3D printing machines. This makes silicone moulds and polyurethane resin almost obsolete! The aluminum trick also works if you want to plate parts - spray adhesive 3M brand works best on foil. I mould my trim first then spray it and apply it to the part. Or I spray the foil then mould it to the part and trim as you would with Chrome Foil brand but with better adhesion and a shinier more chrome like appearance. Thank you for sharing this for those who didn't or still don't know how to do this.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thank you for your input!

[@dennygraham9792]

Why moony, haven't you heard of the chrome sprays??? Been experimenting with them and many are so close that one can't tell the difference. Not quite as durable but if it's just a display model, not to be handled that is, they're great. Denny G, Sandwich, IL

[@chrislong8134]

And THIS is why I watch your videos......

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

lol! Have fun!

[@pappytinkers]

I almost didn't watch this because i knew the old way of doing this, using plastic melted with glue. First you had to cut up sprue pieces, melt them in glue to the perfect consistency, then pray that the foil didn't bend while trying to glob that into the foil. I think I'm gonna like this way a whole lot better!! Thank you Ralph!

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thank you. Yes the old way you described seems like a lot of work.

[@pappytinkers]

@@TheMuscleCarModeler it was a lot of work especially since it only worked about 25% of the time. Maybe part was me because I thought I was supposed to take it out of the foil? Last time I tried it was like 15 yrs ago. I will certainly try you method!

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

I leave it in the foil and glue it on as is. My success rate is much higher now, but I still make extras.

[@lancerevell5979]

An interesting concept! 👍 One tool I use for cutting/trimming decals is a pair of small manicure scizzors.

Wholly cow! Batman, iv never gotten into this side of model kit building. But as im sitting here, i just realized that this sort of thing wil probably work great for making castings for Sci-fi model ship typ stuff. Especially when all of those old plastic army and crazy cheap toys are just sitting on the shelves at the second hand stores. Now im pretty sure that i could get into that. A big thanks.

Wow Ralph awesome tutorial.. Came and a good time too. I have a 66 Fairlane that needs script on the trunk,(ebay glue bomb) that has been sanded off mostly and I have a new in the kit body and this trick is just what I need! Thanks! 👍😁 Yes U have BMF the script before painting that is a cool trick too... Lol Here is a tip I seen somewhere. Take a pop bottle cap and fill the bottom full of candle wax, then put your super glue on that and it will last almost a 1/2 hour or so. When glue is dry, pop out the dries super glue re-flow the wax and your ready for the next time. Works great for long gluing sessions... LLAP 🖖

I always did wonder how this was accomplished. You do make it look easy, but now I'm not afraid of screwing up a vintage car trying it. Thank you! I'm now subscribed...

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks. Making the emblems is pretty easy and no harm is done to the body you are taking the foil molds from. Hard part is not damaging them when trimming or crushing them. But if you do, making extras is easy and the tape method of attaching them really helps. Using the tape the way I do really limits the damage and helps locate them before gluing.

[@j.n.9546]

incredible tip Raoul! I will definitely try this. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tip with the community.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks!

[@Mushki911]

Hey dude. Thanks for this video. I casted out a few items using your method but I did a few steps differently which i hope you or others on here can try too. Firstly after you've casted on the foil after applying the super glue, I sprinkled a tiny amount of Bicarbonate of Soda on the glue. This instantly hardens the glue hence did away with waiting 24hrs to cure. Once hardened, I used a 1000 file to smoothen the glue out to almost the foil level. Then for cutting I used those tiny scissors used for manicure/pedicure to really cut precisely around the curves and edges. You end up getting an almost casted logo or body part. Hope this tip helps you or anyone else.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks for the additional steps that may help others out!

[@dennygraham9792]

New to the hobby Ralph, rather back at it. 82 now and the last plastic model I built was way back about 1954 or 55. I'm picking up lots of new ideas and learning about new materials to work with, i.e. paints, glues, photo etched parts, etc. Have been disappointed in several models I've built this winter because of the molded in emblems, door handles, etc. After watching this video.....the this thought came to me---Oh yeah dumb ars.....now why didn't you think of that. Great tip, thanks, makes complete sense, I'm sure I'll be using it a lot in the future. Only thing I had doubts about is how well the CA plug is gonna stick to the aluminum foil. I'm envisioning it falling out about the time you lay it up in place or the foil coming with the tape when you pull the tape away after it sets. But....some experimenting will answer that question I'm sure. Thanks again for the tip. Denny G, Sandwich, IL

That’s fantastic! I’ve done this before and also used black sealant as a mould and melted plastic into glue poured into it. But using sellotape as a handle and a means of placing emblems go attach them is a great idea. Thank you 👍👍👍

Cool. It’s funny but I didn’t think too much about the tape portion of this video but that has gotten just as much feedback as the actual foiling!

I remember reading articles about this years ago. If I remember correctly, they would clean up the back and some of the excess foil with emery boards. Basically, just run the back of the cast piece flat across the emery board . Should get a lot of the excess foil that you can't get with a blade.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

I may try that next time.

I’m really impressed with the embossing method of copying the patterns. I’m just thinking if you wanted an identical copy of the pattern that you didn’t want in ‘chrome’, you could dissolve the aluminium foil away in caustic soda, leaving a perfect impression of your part in superglue.

You can use the paper stick of a q tip if you cut off the cotton as a burnishing tool. It's harder than the cotton but softer than a toothpick and you have it on hand. Cut it at an angle to get in tighter places like lettering and/or soften it up.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks! I may try that.

[@Iskelderon]

Thanks for sharing! That's good to know, since aluminium tape can be a pain in the ass to work with on something like that.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

[@saxmusicmail]

For the white glue, you can also use Roman Seam Repair, comes in a white tube, blue lettering, in the wallpaper department of Home Depot, Lowes, etc. It dries clear, tacks up quickly, has a slight flex, and sticks to plastics well. I use it for details on model railroad locomotives and other detailing. Also use it for windows on passenger cars, buildings. It won't fog clear styrene like plastic glue will do. Try it, you can get a very large tube for less cost per oz.

[@cratecruncher4974]

I'd suggest brushing a very light coat mold release before filling your foil impression with ca. Once cured the ca part will release from the mold for rinsing and chrome paint. doing it this way avoids the growth in the size of the emblem and trimming hassles. I've had better luck with uv cured epoxy than brittle ca. You don't need mold release and the logo isn't as fragile.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks. I may give that a try next time.

[@LonesomeTinkerbell]

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

[@charlesbecker9617]

An interesting idea. Something to experiment with. I will see how it goes using artist blending stumps, rather than a toothpick. Since I do drawings, I already have a variety of sizes, and point types.probably less likely to poke through the foil. Will also check out using the moldable kneadded rubber erasers for some of the detail molding.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks. That sounds great.

That's pretty cool. I'm too impatient for this kind of work though. I usually just use a Molotow chrome pen for metal/chrome details. It works quite nicely.

Very helpful way to detail models. Can you tell me with the script "Duster".....you can apply this to model slightly trimmed, but still with a bit of foil around the emblem.......Once it sets do you clean more of the overage foil away? Also when you do the final paint job , do you use solvent to clean the raised emblem?

Thanks. I try and get it as close to trimmed as possible. I try not to trim it after it is attached to the model.
