Sunday models

Ah, Sunday. This is my last build as a teen in the '60s. They didn't
come much simpler than this.

 

Good Sunday morning to all, great start. Working on a 56 Chevy. Gasser.

 

Greaser josh 13 it looks like that Merc is chopped from the manufacture?

Couple of beat up Chevys.

 

Most of the models i've built have been Volkswagens of one sort or another.

Few scale mags.

 

Scrap styrene and some free time.
Dodge A100 truck conversion.

I turned this nasty 1957 Pyro kit into this.



A 1948Lincoln Continental roadster.

 

Please recommend a good paint stripper for styrene and resin. Thanks. John

 

I've always used easy-off oven cleaner.

 

X 2.

 

I got this far on mine.

 

I used Easy Off until someone clued me in on "Super Clean". Works great on removing chrome too.

 

I use bleach for chrome.

 

ok thanks for the stripper tips. John

 

Sunday..old pickups!..

 

I have used Westley's Bleach White for years when restoring old and poorly painted 1/25ths. Doesn't harm styrene, gets all but some faint paint stains off. One bottle can strip many models, I store it in a Tupperware tub with a snap on top.

 

A friend of mine who told me about Super Clean has a container of it he saves and re-uses and refers to it as the "purple pond".

 

it’s Saturday night, but I couldn’t wait to post these, this came in today and it’s badass!

Good Sunday morning, some of my 2018 builds.

 

Nice grouping. It seems like you're just knocking them out left & right. I need to take
breaks so my irritation level doesn't build up. I've seen spray cans on your workbench
in pictures, do you just use those or are you airbrushing? The paint jobs look good.
What about clearing them?

I'm a volume hacker, no airbrush, don't have one. Rattle can paint, never clear coated, I should try it ! Here are more builds from this year, salt racer is wood scratch built & twin engine dragster was a 4 engine kit that I stole one engine for for the t- bucket to the left, still trying.

 

I appreciate the reply, thanks. They're looking good!
