Re: BENZ 500SL
That's a sweet looking colour Allan..
You got a set of wheels picked out for it yet ? Or staying with the "stockies"...?
Big set of bling chromies would suit it....
cheers

Greg would like to put a set new wheels but don't have any,might have to look around for a set of 1/24 scale.

Re: BENZ 500SL
Looking good allan, I always liked these mecedes. Hey if your looking for a nice set of wheels try at kmart on their 1:24/ 25 diecast tuners, and take the stock wheel with you to match up the sizes, theyre $20 i htink, but you dont just get wheels you get a car full of NOS bottles and ICE

Re: BENZ 500SL
looks cool.. whatcha mixing your nailpolish with?? i had same probs until i started using all purpose thinners...
Benz
Andy I used auto general purpose thinners,with the nail enamel that I used has lot of metal flake it it,which has left a rough surface,re-airbrushed it today have to lightly sand back a bit then clear coat.the flake also flys all over the place when its airbrushed,so don't have any other bodys drying near by.

had little problen with the nail enamel on Benz were the 2 colours meet it started to blister,sanded it back 3 times in the end have reunder coated it,with 2 heavy coats then re-sprayed it the gold,waited 2 weeks be for putting gold on,I used 2 diffrent brands of nail enamel,I think that why it did it,so far no more problem.
