Godzilla Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Well after using brasso, I decided to try this ELO Easy Lift Off from Hobbytown. What I did was put some of this on a cloth and started rubbing. That stuff quickly removes paint faster than Brasso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted June 22, 2004 Author Share Posted June 22, 2004 nice dude! i guess the brasso taking a hike and easy lift off is in. Actually, I think using ELO, I would be more careful. It does infact eat away the plastic as I found this past weekend. not eat away but weakened it. I am trying to get emergency parts from fulcy to complete my VF-1A TV max, but I think screwed up with this classic white paint... too damn glossy.

BTW, what kind of paint are you using for your customs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted June 22, 2004 Author Share Posted June 22, 2004 I am using Testers model master paint enamel. Not much of Tamiya paints but I am looking into Tamiya flat white right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of Tamiya paints but I am looking into Tamiya flat white right now. you might what to try out some citadel paints. its weird cause its not glossy or flat but somewhere inbetween....semi gloss? i used it to paint my custom 1J head and it turned out really well. not to shiney, not to flat, but matched perfectly with the rest of the valk.
