    Trying to color match this faded paint on this vintage Redline Hot Wheels turned out to be difficult. We did a respray with spectra flame urethane and it looks pretty decent. The paint ended up with a cool effect and new wheels really set the whole project off!

    1st let me say thank you for sharing your videos with us. I love the work you normally do. But you need to slow down brother. I felt that you rushed this project out. You pushed yourself at 3am. I would rather wait for you to have the time you need than for you to feel like you have to get a video out. Remember we're your fans. We can wait for you. So don't feel like your under pressure to kick out videos. This is your hobby, not your job. If you push yourself to hard you'll just get tired of doing that. I don't want to see you get burnt out I like your videos to much. Just put out the videos when you have time. Keep up the great work.

      I appreciate that man, i gotta work around drying times, if i do just a top coat its easy. Start adding clear and vinyl tops it adds extra days on etc. Just trying to stay on top of it :D

      @mikethomas8720 Před 5 lety +3

      I agree. I just found this channel and watched you do the brown one. This one seemed like you were rushed. Not doing the full dip on the windshield just brushing it to save time was an example.

      Totally...And show everything...People online are always "Well I'll skip this part cos it will bore you" or speed it up X2. When for newbs and kids watching, they can't then gauge how long something takes to happen, like paint stripping the full reaction takes a certain amount of time ...and if you must edit for time at least give it the "5 minutes later" spongebob filler insert...

Your vinyl top is perfect. Those tops would be flaking away in a year btw and there were maybe 13 people in L.A. who did vinyl tops and it was not cheap. Carry on, eh?

    So I tried out the Lime-Out trick on some of my old diecast models from the 1940s. It worked great! The chemical reaction smelled absolutely horrible, but all of the corrosion and grime fell right off after soaking for 4 minutes. It left the paint alone too, which is what I was most afraid of.
