IH885XLMAN Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 It was just an Experiment to see if i can decal things for the other prodject but thats in pices at the moment and this was close to hand i will probebly do her up and flog her as a 584 or maybee do the 85 decals to by the way MJ how do you strip old paint off die-cast I was thinking of brushing some nitromorse on to the cast then wire woolling it what do you rekon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 nitromores would be the better option then scrub & soak with white spirit as if you don't get the nitro off the paint goes all crappy ,as i did this with a corgi scania super hauler, first time the finish was awfull but after the white spirit scrub & soak it didn't turn out too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
