    What is the make of that polisher and pads you’re using

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 6 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      The polisher tool is a "close quarters" drill used for drilling in-between wall studs and the pads are just 1 inch polishing pads from Amazon.

    do you have any resources for what specific tools to buy to get into this hobby? Your painting comes out so great!

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I always suggest supporting your local hobby store first. They are not only a good place to find items, tools and kits, they are generally a wealth of knowledge and a good place to meet other hobbyists to talk to. If you do not have one near you, online stores are another good place to start. I use M.R.S Hobby Store and I know they also do online orders at mrshobby.com/. Then lastly there is always Amazon. They have some good starter hobby tool kits that are pretty in-expensive.

    I am having difficulty with applying SuperPrimer. At first I was using a 0.4mm needle (Harder & Steenbeck Evolution double-action) with 20psi. I was getting a very rough, almost like sandpaper finish. I could even wipe some of it off with my finger. I tried increasing pressure to 30psi, then back to 25psi, then even down to 14psi. None of that seemed to help. In the research I did, I found they called it "dusting" and it is supposedly the de-atomization of the paint. Here, others suggested I move in closer. This did appear to help, but I still ended up with an orange peel finish. I also found in having to deliver enough paint to start flow, I sometimes applied too much to a spot or even ended up with spider webs. Also, the coverage was so narrow, I ended up with a very splotchy, uneven coverage. Next, I tried moving to a 0.6mm needle. This provided much broader coverage, so application seemed smoother, but the runs in spots became worse. The orange peel was still there and some slight dusting appeared. I am able to apply other paints and primers evenly. For example, I've used Mr. Hobby Surfacer with consistent results. I've also used both Vallejo, MIG, and AK primers with success. Obviously, I need to adjust my technique to use SuperPrimer successfully. At this point, I think I am changing too many variables, but I don't know what to try next.

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I initially also had problems with the SuperPrimer dusting on me as well. I have found that I get considerably less dusting when I thin the primer with his thinner and use less pressure.

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't have a speed but if I remember right, the Dremel type tools start spinning at 5000 RPM so anything less than that would be better.

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have not had the alcohol damage any parts yet, but I always suggest testing unknown processes. Just put a few drops on a part and you will know right away if it is going to work or not as it should start reacting with the paint right away.

  • @beano9343
    @beano9343 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I was kinda wondering about the mirrors being so fragile and creating an obstruction into the tight spots around it. Would it be better to leave them till later, or is it better to have them on for a better final finish? Just thinking about the final finish and being able to sand without knocking the mirrors off. Still kinda new (new as in I don't have an air brush and I painted by hand previously. And also been about 20 years and getting back into the hobby and planning to spray rather than brush now)

    • @ScaledDownCustoms
      @ScaledDownCustoms 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Welcome back to the hobby. I have done the mirrors both ways. Glueing prior to paint will give a better bond but does present access problems for sanding and polishing.
