- Why should it even bother anyone that a modern model car kit is molded in color? It makes no difference at all. And I prove it in this video.

With the modern primers and paints bleed through is no longer an issue. You have proved this very well. Thanks for sharing.
It’s all bout doing the proper prep work. If you use the right color primer and base coat on colored plastic then you shouldn’t have and bleed through.
It doesn't matter with these kits.they do not bleed through.
@@TheLukaCeeChannel What is the difference between the old plastics and the new?
Its lookin good bud. People just look for stuff to complain about.
They sure do.
I find the filler primer to be “heavy” and can hide fine details, but I do like it on 3D prints with layer lines. It works really well. Body looks great 👍
I was blind but now I can see. I believe! 😮
Love the video, and thanks for the tip on using styrene rod for filler, but thought maybe you could also do that with a piece of red styrene from the kit to dip and dab 🤔
You could. But there isn't any of the kit sprue that is tiny enough. The Evergree styrene strip I used was small and thin so it got soften by the glue very fast and fit into the small gap.
Thank you for showing everybody your secrets for model cars. New episode next week?
i do my bodies in a very similar way. i have had pretty good luck even with the vintage kits with colored plastic. the one kit i remeber having a tough time with was the monogram testarrosa, it was molded in yellow and i had to repaint it several times untill the yellow didnt bleed through.
I think white is the hardest colour to do a body with, I've only done one car white and now it's in the junkyard !
Great video,and terrific how to on paint and especially bodywork.
Thank you very much.
Once again, excellent works and explanations. Thanks
Thanks
Interesting video there Luka, thanks for showing us all the steps to avoid any bleed throughs from a different coloured plastic body. Well done 👍🏼👍🏼
Awesome Mr. Cee, totally Awesome!
Thank you kindly!
Just think it depends n how much dye is in the kit, I had a Christine kit, I used professional 2k sealer and it still bleed though and one that didn't
I literally thought I had a hair on my phone screen, then I realized that it was on your car body 😂
Great idea on the gap filling. I take the smallest Evergreen or Plastruct rod and push it into the gap with the extra thin quick set glue. Love the intro music too.
I really hope you make this a channel build.
I was at the Legends race. It was nuts !
Oh man. That must had been so cool!
Nice tips, I always felt with the right primer no bleed through
I hope you do the Kulwicki car. He was my favorite driver and I still remember hearing about his death.
That probably the one I'll go with. Now that Mike's is coming out with the decals.
Thanks for the advice. I'm gonna be painting a red model white,and was going to use Tamiya primer. Now I'll use what you did.
Nice 🤠
Looks good. I just painted the orange Camaro I'm building for a group build. Covered it with white primer. Turned out great
Great, to each their own but I do not care for molded in color kits and I never will. Most are reissued in white or gray at some point anyway so it's not a problem.
I just don't get it why it matters.
Very cool thanks for sharing 🏁🏁
This is the same as real cars or body parts. A good primer to seal and fill will take care of colors. I guess a lot of model builders never had a car or parts painted before. The main thing is all parts use the same color primer and coats.
thanks for the video!
I misunderstood this whole issue. I thought primer was the cure all along. I didn't know people that used primer experienced this ever. I learned this lesson with, if I remember right, a Monogram '77 or '78 Trans Am molded in black and I shot it in gloss red, it turned chocolate brown. Of course that was about 1980 ish or so. Even then once I started priming them first it was no longer an issue. I just recently got back in to modeling and was surprised that they seem mostly all white now. Back when I was a kid it seemed like most of the kits I bought were molded in color.
Back in the day. There was a different process used to color styrene. What would happen with reds yellows green and a few other colors. Even with primer. The color dye would leach through the primer and tint the color you painted. That doesn't happen anymore. But builders still complain about colored bodies. So I wanted to show that there isn't the issues that we used to have.
you addin yellow sparkplug wires? :P
Of Course. I'm not an Animal.
@@TheLukaCeeChannel LOL
sorry i couldent stop myself after the shitshow about yellow wires on the facebook
Its much easier when its white
Not really. I would paint a white body exactly the same. It doesn't make one bit of a difference at all.
You are comparing apples to oranges. Now show the same thing with a Monogram red Thunderbird! The difference, as you have mentioned many times, is Salvino’s used pigment where Monogram used dyes. Please show us how you prep the red Monogram body for white!
I used silver lacquer paint over one coat of primer, not foolproof but if applied at the right thickness it works. That's how i painted my two 85 T Birds.
🤦 I laid that all out in the video.
You as a Judge at 23:35 = Hilarious!😂😂🤣😅😆😁
