  • Here in the Beginner How-To I am taking you step by step through the process of building a model car using basic techniques. In video #2 we go through the process of removing parts from the sprue, gluing together the parts than can be painted assembled, cleaning and sanding the parts, and preparing them for paint. In video #3 we will begin applying some paint. Questions or comments are welcomed! Thanks again for following along with the Beginner How-To!

    Great video. I would add that very first step before any glue or painting is to wash every part ( except possibly chrome or clear) with warm H2O & dish soap scrubing with a old toothbrush and good rinse with cool water. This removes any possible residue oils from the mold ejection process. Helps with ensuring good glue bonding and paint/ primer adhesion. Oops just watched vid 3 & you covered the dish soap wash. LOL

    As a model builder, I never thought about organizing all the parts by color code. Always seems I am finding that one part I missed just after cleaning the black paint off my brush! Great tutorial.

      What originally was doesn’t really factor into it for me. I respect builders who do however with the their dedicated and thorough research. It’s just for me I just want to build a model and have it look good not necessarily accurate. Thanks for the info!

    • @marcusschroeder9182
      @marcusschroeder9182 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Heads are painted with the block. Headers are chrome or steel. If they are painted, it’s only to protect them during shipping/installation. The paint burns off the instant you run the engine (and smells lovely). 😉

  • @kurtscrochetvideos3356
    @kurtscrochetvideos3356 ปีที่แล้ว

    What if my model doesn't have the color pallet numbered? I love this so idea of keeping the pieces together for ease of painting. The kit that got does not have any colors listed for the parts, so I feel like I'm in my own here. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • @2435rats
    @2435rats 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The headers are suggested to be orange because MOPAR aka Chrysler autos had the headers/ ex manifolds on the engine blocks when they were painted at the factory. The paint would eventually burn off within the first couple of months of use.

    I love the beginner how to. You chose a level 5 which has a lot of pieces and difficult. I am showing my son how to build a model he chose the level4 68 camaro. Do you ever find the picture in the model instructions to be mirrored? I have seen where the pic says big piece on left and on the actual model it goes on the right?

      Thanks very much - I’m glad you like the videos! As for the engine color - I’ve never been too picky when it comes to getting the right color. I just go sign something close. I believe that’s Testors enamel 1127 orange. Have fun!!

    I've fed so many parts to the carpet monster, and when I look for the parts and give up, 2 months later it spits them out. I just bought some flambeau clear storage boxes, and plano 3700 boxes, they work great for part storage.

      Looked everywhere for the Tamiya what? There appears to be a missing word in your question. Do you mean the car body paint stand? Either way try searching an online retailer like Amazon or Model Roundup if your local shops do not have it. Thanks and good luck.

    Harbor Freight has needle Files Exactly Same Company that makes them for Testors super Cheap set of 12 are $1.99 -,$2.49 for set without the plastic Handles they also have the plastic Handles ones Same as Testors but non Testors logoed for slightly more but over time the handles often come loose hence I opt for non handles for my model tool array
    You're zcorrect headers are normally Steel, Aluminum, Flat Black or Flat White. Never Engine Block color. Why ?? it's the VHT. (Very High Temp) paints cook off survival Temperature in Standard Engine Colors do not go High enough to Endure Extremity of Exhaust heat. Hence Flat Black, Flat White or Silver are it
