    Great Vid, I always have trouble polishing. I use about a 3000 grit sandpaper and then use Meguiar's Ultra-Cut and I still see scratch marks.

    I hate polishing! I use a 2k and Mr Hobby GX100 lacquer. One of the problems I get after wet sanding/polishing is a milky like hue to the paint and I'm not sure why. I use the usual grit paper. I would appreciate your thoughts as to what might cause this...

    Very nice video. Luv the root beer color. It's a keeper. That's a '54 Hudson Hornet, not a '54 Ford Hudson Hornet. 0:21 Hudson and Nash merged to form American Motors at this time so this was the last true Hudson.

    Hey Nick, I ran across this video while checking out other airbrush vids. What paint did you use for primer, base and clear, are you air drying , heat lamp or hair dryer ? I've been using Createx brand Wicked and Illustration paints doing portraits ( well trying to at least ) . Was thinking of getting back into models ( my last model build was back in 1976 ) and was just wondering what you use. By the way Great looking car, video and info, thanks

    Thanks for sharing your tips and had a quick question for you, last time I worked on my models was over 23 years ago and hand painted some, didn't primer it just painted one coat would I still be able to shine it up as good as yours? Thanks and keep up the Great work. 👍

    Seems like Acrylics is a soft surface vs Enamel or Lacquer.

    I always have polish that dries in the lines ( hood, trunk, etc...), the stuff gets hard as a rock- any hints on how to get rid of it or is a black wash my only choice?

    Great! so much to learn from your channel. Subbed!
    I´m stating with cars. I love scale model cars, but I always did aircraft and tanks, so for me the cars are dificult.
    I use Enamel Humbrol paint (I have Metallic collection, saved for start making cars), but I can´t find what finish gloss coat use over them. I bought a couple of car lacquers but they ruined the enamel paint. ¿what do you think?. I always can change to tamiya or another lacquer or acrylic, but first I want to use my Enamel paints so I don´t waste that money.
    I hope there is a solution.
    And then, about changing paint, ¿what direction should I take if I want to do cars? ¿Tamiya?. Sure in your videos I´ll lear much more, but a quick tip can save me so much time!!
    Thanks!!!

    • @nickamburgey1980
      @nickamburgey1980  5 лет назад +1

      Yes lacquer and enamel do not mix well. I use acrylic or lacquer with a lacquer clear works well I use tamiya for detail painting you could probably do the same with the humbroil you already have.

      @@nickamburgey1980 Perfect. So, about acrylic or lacquer paints, ¿what brand do you think I should buy?. I´m from Argentina, so here I can´t get specific scale model cars paint, like Zeropaints, etc.
      I can get Tamiya, Ak-Interactive Real Colors (not so much cars paint Lol), Vallejo Model Air or Vallejo Model Color.
      Thank you very much.
