One of my favorite colors. Looking good. 👍
Thanks Typo! It is indeed a beautiful colour man.
Stunning colour. Very cool
Yep, looks awesome in the sunlight
Hello,
Never start /stop painting while on the model... START spraying then move the nozzle across the model while spraying then STOP spraying when past the model....
Nice clean spray stokes on the entire length of the area being painted
+Tick Tock thanks for the great advice and also appreciate you watching the video

Hey, Steve. One piece of input I'd like to offer as a newbie so far is that you don not leave out the part about how long you allow each layer to dry for. That's information is not trivial at all.
This came out beautifully. Can I ask a question? So im trying to paint my hard body but everytime i use the tamiya masking tape to make the lines so I can paint the other side a different color when I take the tape off it leaves a streak of residue that makes me have to start all over and sand it and paint again but all I will be doing is going is circles. My question is if I leave the residue will this clear coat cover it and make is vanish? Or do you have a suggestion to get rid of the residue? Before you suggest some products I did some researching and I tried Wd40, Water, Goo Gone and using more tape to stick it and bring it up but none of these work. Thanks for any help
This is a good example of why "orange peel" isn't such a big deal. Some people go to painstaking lengths to avoid that slightly textured finish you can see catching the light but it doesn't really bother me that much.
To avoid it you need to spray so close that the paint begins to pool but not so much that it stays pooled! The other way is to keep sanding each coat to smooth it out then use a gloss top coat. It's a lot of extra work though.
Most of the time, I just spray from a little further back and deal with that slightly textured finish, I think it looks good anyway and apparently so do you!
It's one of those subjective things, some people say "ooohhh that's a nice finish" and then other people are like "omg nooooo you have murdered that body shell, it's a crime against humanity!!!"
Even the term orange peel is subjective, I believe true orange peel is more of a smooth dimpled look to the surface, often seen on full size automobiles too. The grainy effect seen here is a different phenomenon but seems to get called the same thing.
Hi is it normal to have stain on the paintwork after awhile? Or can you help me by telling how to prevent stain on the paint work on the model?. Thanks.
Don't you sand or key the body before primer?
Hello,
Which type of paint do you use....Enamel,Lacquer,Acrylic???
Thanks
How many cans of Mica Red are needed in total? I’m about to delve into my MR build
Great video
Thanks, glad to hear that you liked it
for bright color's such as reds.yellows,oranges,use a white primer first,makes everything pop more!!
+Lowballin Picker Awesome thanks for the tip :)
no problem! love those older yotas!
Your mica red looks a lot brighter than mine. Is this the TS-39?
3:50 was that a bedbug (right side of screen) running away? lol
I alwau use a airbrush.Nut when i use shake can i alway stop/start side by side spraying instead of paper towel i use an tap cloth to wipe body down
Thanks for the comment
Hi Thanks for sharimg your experts workz
Just a Question
Do u sand down the body before primers?
+Gnzty 74 you can but I never have.
What would happen if you didn't use a primer? would the color come out different and woud it be in a bad way? Just curious never painted anything before. Have a tamiya grasshopper kit i was thinking bout putting togther and painting.
+Larry Carroll the paint will stick better to the primer. You could paint directly over without using primer but you can run the risk of the paint pealing off.
hi, is one spray can enough to cover these parts ishown n the video?
Nah get yourself 2
@@RCTanksTrucks247 damn justnorderedmone already......
I will be getting a Bruiser soon. Can the Cab and rear section be attached before spraying to ensure continuity of colour?
Yeah I think so
Hey! You did one coat of primer but what about basecoat and did you sand it between coats? What about clear coat?
Hello, I did one coat of primer and Mica red. I didn't sand it in between coats as I was happy with the finish. Once I finish with all the decals then I will apply the clear coat.
+RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 Thank you for sharing this nice instructive and to the point video!
Getting all the stickers and decals in place, requires a lot of handling with fingerprints everywhere, do you wipe off with a cloth and some degreasing chemical before applying the clear coat?
Cheers.
I have a 1/24 Tamiya Nissan GTR r32, would this spray work on it??
+TrainerRubyCheah most definitely
no primer on the inside? and how long do you let it dry after primer or between coats?
+K - RAD no as it is painted on the outside. I left it a couple of hours in between coats.
hey ,Does it need to be primed? Before paint the abs plastic body shell?
Generally yes
@@RCTanksTrucks247 thank you brother
How many coats of the red did you do and how much time in between coats?
+Dagoberto Solis hello, from memory I did two coats and about one hour between
Did you use the tamiya paint for plastics? the lacquer?
+Dagoberto Solis just the generic tamiya spray cans.
Is 1 can of primer enough?
1 mini can of tamiya primer is good in my experience for 2 body’s
Did you sand the hard body first before priming?
Not from memory
How tins of paint did you use.
About 2
how many cans of red paint did you need please
+Dwight Schrute two is just enough
Thank you kindly and nice Hilux by the way
hi guys can anyone tell me the purpose for primer on plastic please :) I can see different answers unsure what's myth or true
Well I've just started painting models myself, and in my experience, the primer gives the paint something to adhere to. Painting on its own can work, but it can also leave swirls and uneven areas depending on the surface. I'm going to go out and get some primer tomorrow and see if it helps.
I keep the windows closed when I paint inside but it’s because I love the way paint smells brah 👍
hahaha
