  1. I had some damage to my Monogram P-40 in my Pearl Harbor collection so I decided to Replace with Airfix P-40 in 1/48. This is one very nice Kit. Built mostly out of box except Gun Sight,Uschi Antenna and Eduard Seatbelt. Really enjoyed this kit and fit was mostly great with a few areas only needing a little sanding and dry fitting. Painted with Vallejo Air colors OD and Neutral Grey. Over-coated with Future for Gloss and decanted Dullcoat for final finish. Used some Tamiya weathering powders to "dirty her up". Kit decals were great and no problems. I used gloss black on Props and buffed with Uschi Chrome powder. Hollowed out exhaust and gun barrels with no issues . Thanks for Looking and Comments Welcome Cheers Bill D

  2. Here's the first part of the response from Rustoleum. I'm sure most of y'all have seen it, but I'm posting it for those who might have missed it. Note that it was dated March 4, 2020, just about the time that Covid-19 hit with all four feet. I also had several questions that Rustoleum is addressing, but it will take about a week for their response. Stay tuned.
