  8. Anyone know what decent hotels are around where the Nats will be? Just got back from Hawaii a month ago, paid $28.00 on parking at the hotel for the 8 days we were there! I said never again am i going somewhere where the hotel you pay and arm and a leg for charges you for parking! So i was wondering what around that area close would be good.... where they dont charge you for parking. I think thats the most rediculous thing there is!
  9. Yeah, that figures dont it! just to make it more difficult for us modelers.
  10. anyone know where i can get NATO green in an enamel? ive looked but cant seem to find it anywhere. its for the Stryker ill be doing..... sometime.LOL
  11. Thanks Ken! guess ill just start washing in the sink from now on to save that frustration. LOL
  12. after i wipe a part down after its been sanded, i wipe it down with ISO alcohol, then when it drys, all this sanding dust and stuff is still left, like in cracks and around something. But after im done wiping it down, it looks all nice and clean, but when dry it isnt. Anyone know why this is?
  13. when you use that Rust All, before you do, are you suppose to dullcoat or put a gloss coat on the part first?
  14. anyway to get my olive drab to look a little brownish? im using the MM enamel.
  15. :D--> QUOTE(Henrik B @ Sep 23 2007, 11:33 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was going to say flex-i-files, but the other trick I've got is to use sandpaper instead of sanding sticks. Thanks Dave !
  16. everytime,no matter how careful i am, when im sanding a round object, say like a small roadwheel or a tube shaped something, no matter what i use it cant seem to keep its roundness. Whats the secret here? Ive used the flex-i-files, same problem, plus those cant sand real small spaces like i need. Ill ask around the different message boards and see what ideas you all can give me. thanks everyone !! This has been an ongoing problem of mine for years ! youd think by now i would have it down.
