Build is all ready to receive the decals which I have already completed except for the fender and door contingencies. So far, no messed-up ones but I probably just jinxed myself. The small ones are always the hardest for me to do.

Reference material / JD McDuffie paint question
Last post by jh63fan - July 12, 2025, 03:28:39 PM
Working on JD McDuffie's Bailey Excavating Lemans using the Powerslide decal sheet. My question is the blue a metallic. I can only find the one photo that is on Mike's site, and that one is not too good. It looks darker than the blue he used on the later Rumple Furniture Gran Prix.

Looks great and green too. Not many green schemes over the years.
But layering all the decals, I don't envy you for this. The TV panel, fitting several layers perfectly over that fender. Yikes.

Alcohol rubdown seems to have worked for the top wing, just primed one side of the front wing. Using enamel primer.

Just may end up being lazy and slapping a coat of Tamiya semi-gloss over the primer. The wings don't appear to be gloss white. Most sprint cars these days are wraps that don't have a gloss finish to them anyhow.

i wiped down my last "extra" top wing with 90% alcohol and used the white enamel primer, so far so good.  will report back if there are any problems.

i reached out to Acme about it and they responded within 24 hours.  some account representative who i am sure randomly got the email said that the "design guy" won't be back at work until Monday and she would forward this on to him.  let's see if i get a response.

....Surface is contaminated with something ....even using the best of the best primers wont hide that...I use Dawn dish washing soap and allow the piece to air dry....I have had no issues with doing it that way, ever.
