First car model

[Steveo535]

Hi All

I have finally bought my first car kit (Toyota Celica Castrol Rally car) for many years and have a couple of questions.

1 Do you guys use any particular product on the tires to help hide the decals?

2 Best gloss finish to use for final coat other than 2k as I spray in a spare bed room and worried about the smell.

Cheers Steven

Hi and welcome
Lots of car stuff going on ISM at the moment, have a look around in the forum and group builds
Paul has some good technique videos on uTube ISM channel

For tire decals, try to cut with as little flash as possible; use sovaset and solvasol to get them down tight as per manufacturers instructions.
To get Paul’s shine on bodies you need to do a two part poly clear
But other clears are decent..both Tamiya and Mr Color have good products. Watch your decals using these as both have solvents that can eat or wrinkle your decals.
Hope that is a helpful start.
