Saan makakabili ng very fine grit sandpaper preferably 1000 up? 800 lang ang pinaka-fine na nakita ko sa True Value. Ginagamit ata 'to sa mga 1:1 kotse for small scratches and detailing. May seamline/moldline kasi akong nakita sa roof ng Corolla na sure akong wala talagang seamline dun (same model kasi ng corolla sedan ng dad ko hehe).

Jeep, meron sa Ace hardware sa SM Southmall na grit 1200. If you want one, I may buy you some and just pay me later. Mga 30 pababa yon or less.

Jeep, while you're in ATC, try checking Federal hardware... i believe they have grit 1200 as well...

Nga pala: ano difference between TS-26 Pure White and X-2 White acrylic in terms of shade (may shade of white na pala)? Gusto ko kasing magtipid at may X-2 na ako sa bahay

IMO, the TS line of Tamiya has inherent(?, for the lack of a better term) gloss properties in it, meaning: di mo na masyado kelangan i buff pagka maayos yung pagka pinta mo sa kanya. Now, X-2 I've no experience with since I use enamel's primarily on my cars.

Meron daw 4000 grit sandpaper in Colorvision QC, it's primarily a talyer so ayun, they carry those stuff. Maybe you could also try local talyer's around your area kasi ganun talaga ka fine ang grit pag oto na ang pinipintahan.

HTH.

Wala naman. Natingin lang kung may available silang AV-8Bs and lookout on some new kits.

Mas matibay lang talaga ang Laquer. I also think mas manipis ang coverage ng X-2, meaning, you have to have more coats para maging kasing pino at pantay ng TS laquer.

Kailan na ba ang napagkasunduang end date? Di ako sure kung makakagawa ako. Ang dami ring campaigns dito sa Armorama na naka-sign up ako. Ok lang ba late entries?

Ok you car gurus! How do you paint the @#$@#%^& lug nuts and hub cap? The nuts are supposed to be black and the rims are white. I'm getting black paint all over the place

Kelangan ko pa ng practice. Di ako satisfied sa carbon fiber decals na nalagay ko sa seats. In-prog pics next week

hey john! i suggest lagyan mo muna ng wash yung paligid ng nuts para maging black na yung mga singit singit, then color the nuts using toothpick or techpen na .2

Hmmm... bat mas mahal yung Fujimi Evo VII na nakita ko doon sa Hobbitoi? 1110 ata sa pagkakatanda ko. Mas mahal pa kaysa sa Tamiya version na 800 pesos lang.

You don't know your car-kits then, hehe! Ganun talaga ang pricing nang Fujimi. Kahit curb-side ang cars nila, ganun pa ren talaga ang pricing, even if you check your online-hobby-shops (i.e: hlj, etc.) if you convert their prices -- ganun talaga. At the most, 1,200 nga yan eh.

Just so you know.

Andun pa rin ang Corolla's mo jomz na re-arrange lang ng konti

Seatbelts!!! Saan ba naka-attach ang seatbelts? May bolts ba right behind the seats? May nakita kasi akong car na ang bolts nya nasa rear crossmember ng roll cage. Ayaw ko kasi ng decal seatbelts. Mukhang decal
