Thanks Stuart!!

Ok gang. 3rd Update.
I just finished the interior up this morning. The door panels were giving me a lot of trouble at first in regards to painting the two tone effect but I managed a way around it.
Just remove the hard to mask area by drilling it all out around the perimeter and cutting that section out:



and then just mask and paint the rest of it. To keep this interior from being so boring there was a lot of color luster usage. Some flat, some gloss and different shades of the same color. After all of that I feel pretty good about it not being as bland as it could've been. I also took the liberty of throwing a Hot Rod Magazine in the front seat with an older Firebird on it just to give the whole interior a little more spunk.

Thanks Tom. First modern interior I've done so far.

Been working on the body for the last couple of days. Shot the color coat on yesterday morning and managed to sand out the few dust flakes that did manage to make their way into the color coat this morning. After cleaning the body up I decanted and shot the Wet Look Clear on. Man I love this stuff!!!!

Looks great. I have to try that. I have a couple cans and it safe over Tamiya?

[mustang1989]

Thanks John. It works great but you'll have better luck decanting it and let it get all the air bubbles out of it first which is why I never shoot it from the can. Stuff aeriates like crazy. Perfectly safe over Tamiya. I decanted the Tamiya Pure Red and shot that yesterday and this morning shot the Wet Look over it. lt says Lacquer on the can but it aint.
