I still remain your student :smiley2:

  12. Hi Pete About the BARE METAL FOIL. You recommended, is this the stuff I need to buy ?https://www.amazon.com/Bare-Metal-Foil-Bright-Chrome/dp/B00EMXYKNY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1480604501&sr=8-2&keywords=bare-metal+foil Thanks Pete :smiley20:
  13. Hi Pete Just want to say I really liked that Youtube Video you send me on covering windows on models. I really like that Metal Adhesive Tape on covering windows. I bought a roll at HomeDepot. Pete, after I clean and glue all the parts to my airplane together (and of course take and smooth-out nubs that are left pieces.) Now do I prime right ? If yes, Do I sand and what grit do I use ? 800, 1200 ,2000 ? I wait your reply.
  14. Hi Gang ( Newbie Here ) :smiley16: I finally learned what scales are best 4 me & their lengths. Scale: 1/48 is roughly 7inches long. Scale: 1/72 is roughly 41/2 inches long. I those both scales work for me and a new member or the hobby IPMS. Being that I'm blessed with a 1966 Ford Mustang Covert. Turquoise. It's a show car and won many awards. So, when I ready to build my 1/72 P-51D Mustang. I can place the model airplane on the open hook sitting on my carburetor. That would look so cool. Just wanted to share this with all you great guys. Especially Pete J. who's help this newcomer. 1966 Ford Mustang Convert..htm
