Well, Phil has said that the person(s) who purchased his formula -may- release it under their own label in due time. I'm not sure what that label would be, Phil never publicly disclosed who he sold it to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mike J. Idacavage Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Here's a short review (sort of) of the product called "The Detailer". This is from the Internet Modeler site and was written by Eric Christianson (http://www.internetmodeler.com/2007/septem...hristianson.php) After a couple of tacos and a talk with a man about a Wallaby, I attended another session on weathering and painting models, this one by a young whippersnapper named Daniel PerezVertti. This guy won the TamiyaCon and went to Japan in the 1/48th Modern Jet category. He brought a half dozen completed models with him, and a whole lot of equipment. Now this guy was the antithesis of Dan Clover’s technique. In about 13 minutes, he pre-shaded an F-16, sprayed on the base coat, and then used this amazing stuff called The Detailer [http://thedetailer.net] to wash the panel lines. It’s not paint, but some kind of colored liquid that will transform the way I do panel lines from now on. He took this (just painted) F-16, slopped this stuff on with a brush, and let it dry for two or three minutes. He then wet a paper napkin and wiped the stuff off. What he then handed around the meeting room was a PERFECTLY finished F-16 wing, as far as panel lines go at least. Every line was flawless, and I had my glasses on. Needless to say, the model was a Tamiya kit, with perfectly recessed panel lines to begin with, but… The Detailer comes in seven colors (at least) and Emil told me that Skyway Hobbies carries the most popular ones (Black, White, Brown, and Rust). I was at the same demo as Eric and I was VERY impressed with THe Detailer product. I hust ordered a selection of different colors from the web site and am looking forward to trying this stuff out. Have fun modeling! :D Mike Did someone ask for another method?http://thedetailer.net/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
