Shouldn't it be Chew Chew To-Taki, a song by the Andrew Sisters. Oh, sorry, long before your time Sal

Well just continuing from yesterdays post, Black Caviar the wonder mare from OZ has conquered Ascot, winning the Queen diamond Jubilee and still unbeaten in over 22 starts! In 28 days she will return to OZ the champion that she is.

She will remain unbeaten! She is the worlds best sprinter! Even after beingeased upwith 100 meters to run, she still won the Diamond Jubilee! All class.

I think Mercedes is the worlds best sprinter, especially in the SK Sevice Agency CAT colours

Yet to happen but soon it will, fonna look great whem done as an actual model , have some white decal paper so i cut out what i need, then apply white backing to the van, let dry, then Cat markings over the top and seal, too easy&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;?????????? ??????????

[ALITALIA_747]

Quick question while we are on the decal topic! What productdo you guys use to seal the decals?? What is the best on the market?

[steve k]

Ive got Tamiya mark fit atm seems ok to me then Humbrol gloss cote
mark fit for decals, clear cote for final coat

[ALITALIA_747]

Thanks for that Steve. Is the humbrol clear coat a spray or paint on?

[steve k]

Clear Cote is a brush on, dare say airbrush could be used its a 28ml glass bottle with white cap about 6 $$$$
try art suppliers sure to have a spray to suit what you are doing???

Thanks for that Steve. Is the humbrol clear coat a spray or paint on?

<div></div><div>I'll just add that I use the brush on Humbrol Clear Coat. But a couple of words of warning.</div><div>1) always stir the content thoroghly before each use, even though it looks OK. If you don't the surface will stay sticky for ever.</div><div>2) apply as quickly and as sparingly as possible as it dries very very quickly, about 10 mins, and if you try to over paint a dribble, you spot after a few mins, leave it, otherwiseyou'll make itworse. Most times a small dribble will disappear in the drying time. If you do **** things up, wait a day and then carefully wet and dry with the finests emery paper you can get. Then recoat area thinly.</div>
