    Chrome pens

    Although you might save a couple bucks buying Amazon brand chrome pens, you get what you pay for. Molotow is considered expensive by some but they are worth every penny. Do got to let them cure for a bit but a few hours is all your need. Haven't tried the gundam markers yet to compared though.

    '72 Toyota Celica 1600GT - Aoshima

    You can try to fit them without glue, if it fits snug, keep it in there sans glue. If glue is needed and paint has already been done, use a TINY drop of clear super glue

    Engine Wiring

    Thanks for sharing that pic. I have plenty of pics of the engine and wiring. I am trying to find WHERE these wires go in the engine so I can route them to the right place. Preferably a blueprint displaying what each wire is and the description of the location

    Order of events in regards to painting car body

    Hate to break it to ya but if you don't wet sand, you're never going to get a smooth glossy coat. Inevitably the way the gloss coat cures will reveal orange peel and slight imperfections. Hence, needing to wet sand a polish. I spent hours sanding the model I attached in this pic and it still...

    Order of events in regards to painting car body

    Based off the order of your steps, I think you are actually agreeing with me lol. My order: Prime Body color "decals gloss coat" whet sand trim and bare metal if you do trim BEFORE gloss then areas that are meant to be semi gloss or matte will show up at gloss

    How the Flock do you Flock?

    Thanks for the help. I should have been more clear. I was referring to the interior flocking of vehicles to mimic carpet. However, these videos will help when building dioramas

    Order of events in regards to painting car body

    You really only need to do one gloss coat. Just make sure it has 3-4 layers so when you whet sand it doesnt peel all the gloss coat off.

    How the Flock do you Flock?

    Anyone have any good tips on flocking? Last time I tried it half the flocking fell off, then I made the mistake of pushing some in with my fingers and truly ruined it. Do I need to add more glue to the areas I'm flocking? Add more flock?
