Man ! You are my hero ! I’ve been searching for advanced builder as yourself to help me take my kits to the next level. I hit a creative wall. Thank you so much. Love your work !

Good afternoon Scale modeler, At least it afternoon here.I have never used clear coat before. So I took the advice of many of the guys on youtube that have been doing this for a long time. The clear coat that it came down to was a Dupont rattle can # A-7480S. I hope that it's as good as they say it costs $25 for a 32oz. can. I have a nice base coat and I guess that I'm ready to start spraying the clear coat. I don't know whether to put the decals on first or not. The base coat is Tamiya rattle can yellow. any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thx, Mac

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Michael McNeive if you use tamiya as a base. Use tamiya as a clear aswell. Mixing and matching various brands and paint types can turn in to a dissaster. If your happy with the base. You can go and clear it. Apply the decals and finish clearing it

[@blake1boerschinger596]

I think you should build a amt 352 cabover next, love your vids I tried some of your ways of doing things and it got me a first at a very large show 😊

[@allaboutlego1540]

Wow! That's shiny.. 😋👍👍😝

[@thescalefactorypl9932]

Beautiful color. I'm working on 70 Super Bee by Amt.

Hi TOM I am finding with 2k clear that in order to get rid of orange peel I have to really lay that last coat on thick. Results are pretty good but with some loss of details. How flat are your final coas? Do you sand and polish all your cars? Thanks

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

You can also lay the first and second coat on a bit thicker to help eliminate it a bit. I do not sand of polish mine

[@randybodenner626]

The Scalemodeling Channel Ok thanks - but I thought with zero 2k the first coat had to be light.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Only when your covering a lot of decals ;)

[@viper29ca]

For the 2K Clear, does it have a shelf life? Can get the same from a different manufacturer here, but only has like a 2 week shelf life (the hardener part). When it takes a week, sometimes a week and a half to get to you, don't have much time left to use it.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

There is a shelf life, but as long as you close the bottle propperly it can be a month or 6 to a year

[@McNeive1000]

How do you hold the hood so that you can paint the back side of the hood completely? I'm getting little marks on the top side of the hood while trying to completely cover the back side. Thx, Mac

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Michael McNeive i dont. i have marks on the inside

[@CompilerZ]

Why you use 0.2 needle ? keep going ur great job :)

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

because it works fine for applying color, and it is a bit more precise

[@menetric12]

Clean

[@McNeive1000]

You usually tell us what size needle your using. I've never seen you use anything but a .2mm. However, during your clear coat video I didn't see a needle size. So I'm curious, did you use the same .2mm needle? Thx Mac P.S. I see that you painted the calipers Gun Metal, did you use a different color on the rotors?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

I switch between 0,2 and 0,4 pretty much every painting video. 0,2 is for colors 0,4 is for primer and clear silver

[@McNeive1000]

Silver?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Michael McNeive you asked if i used a different color on the rotor?

[@McNeive1000]

Sorry, I forgot that I had asked you two questions

[@Wesley_C]

Glossy paint, great color, I watched FAF movies so far.

[@alexandrenogueira5378]

Great work! Congratulations ;) you don't paint the interior? In the end for the 72h, where do you live to dry? Can't have any dirt in those 72h. Thanks

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

+Barndoor PSR after 30 or 60 minutes the dirt will not matter as the surface is dry. The dirt only damages the paint straight after or during the aplication. I just leave it in the spraybooth for an hour and then move it to the hobby room

[@alexandrenogueira5378]

Thanks ;)

[@kylesagun156]

Barndoor PSR he probabaly painted the interior, he just needs to post it someday

[@alexandrenogueira5378]

Probably yes! Let's wait for that vídeo. 😉 I believe that is not easy. But I want to learn.

[@kylesagun156]

Barndoor PSR I want to learn too, it's just weird since I don't have an airbrush or spray cans of every color, so it's weird having to hand paint everything :(

[@wyt_boi]

Hello. I need your help! I have an H&S Silverline 2in1 and using ZP but i am not proud of my results. I painted a Porsche with the Gloss Black but when i applied it, it never shines like yours and feels like "sandpaper" on my model even after 3 coats! I'm working with the 0.4 needle at 25psi. Do you know what can i do to change it please? Thank you and by the way great job! your models are awesome!

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

wyt boi GTAddict lower the pressure to 15 psi. Maybe thin the paint a bit. Also do you meen gloss black as in black and then gloss clear. Or gloss black?

[@wyt_boi]

The Scalemodeling Channel at 15psi it seems like the paint do not want to go out of the airbrush.. I have the FPC on it, maybe a setting to do with? Gloss Black is the name of the paint

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Try thinning it a bit, also the gloss black does not shine as much as you would like. I would use a black and then gloss clear on top.

[@wyt_boi]

The Scalemodeling Channel ok i will try this. Can i thin it with the ZP airbrush cleaner or not? And i also have the 2k clear to make it shiny at the end

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

wyt boi GTAddict you can. But use a very very small amount. It is pretty agressive

[@kylesagun156]

Nice.

[@mannydogg9845]

can you do a tutorial of how to pant the car with spray paint because I can't afford to get an air brush right now so I wanna know how to use spray paint instead

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

already did that. its on my channel

[@kylesagun156]

Manny Rodriguez there's a series he did on an s13 where he uses tamiya spray cans. The same ones I use :P

[@kylesagun156]

Manny Rodriguez okay so he also uses tamiya on another mx5, just go into his playlists and look for them.

[@timmytexlonghorns2206]

Wher do you get clear coat at ? Pls tell me

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

+Timothy Church zero paints

[@heykouhai8980]

Hey Quick Question, I just Bought a Nissan Skyline R32 (not a nismo) and Im wondering if that one is difficult for beginners

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Rocket Bunny the tamiya one is not easy! Fujimi is though

[@heykouhai8980]

Oh Thanks! Why is it Hard to do?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Rocket Bunny it has a lot of parts. Some engine parts don't fit. And also some other parts don't line up

[@heykouhai8980]

Oh ok well at least I get help from my parents so I bet It will look amazing once its done!

[@Dillusionz]

i am using a tamiya spray can. i suddenly realized that there is a line on my paint. Is not dust. could it be a mold line that i forgot to sand or my spraying technique is wrong.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

could be yes,

[@Dillusionz]

The Scalemodeling Channel is not my paint or spray technique right. or even my primer.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Daryl Chew sorry man. But without seeing it. I can't help tell you the exact problem

[@danielshamir1436]

what compresor are you using ?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

+eurotech 20aדניאל שמיר

[@danielshamir1436]

and what airbrush

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Links are all in the description דניאל שמיר

[@seanbloomfield1238]

why have you changed you needle size and air pressure

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

If you look closely, i also changed the airbrush, the old one was losing pressure and the 0,2 neelde was bent. this new one does not have these problems yet.

[@seanbloomfield1238]

ok thank you for the reply great video as always thank you

[@kylesagun156]

The Scalemodeling Channel "yet" :(

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Kyle Sagun its delicate stuff. After 8 years of hard use on more than 100 builds. Id say its not a bad thing. It still works fine. But this one is a lot fresher

[@kylesagun156]

The Scalemodeling Channel I suppose, when you bend a needle, would you be able to just replace it?

[@NIEPCUmodels]

What do you use for washing airbrushes after the paint of Zero Pains?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Niepcu Niepcu zero paints airbrush cleaner

[@kylesagun156]

You don't always say "better to add one more thin coat than to apply one thick coat. Nice motto though, you should always say it from now on LOL

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

+Kyle Sagun not in every single video no. But i do mention it a lot XD

[@american_patriotcummins8838]

WOW!! simply beautiful.. I have a question for you Tom. I notice you don't mention anything about washing the parts with soapy water or wiping them down with any kind of wax & grease remover or rubber alcohol or tack cloth. have you ever use any or do you feel blowing it down with air is sufficient enough. And finely if one wanted to see you build you a specific kit would you build it it if was shipped to you? Cheers

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

+Allen Parks i used to wash it with soap and water. Then just water. And then just removed the dust and used a tack cloth. And every time i skipped a step. The finish was the same. So i skipped pretty much all of them XD I would take it in to consideration. Can't make any promises.

[@kylesagun156]
