Re: PLASTIC Upcoming F1 Releases 2021

I am a fan of the 1.5 litre cars. Shame there are not more, especially the BRM P261.

Re: Winkleman Racing Brabham

Here is a 1959 AH Sprite in Dark Green. It also has a bit of a blue cast to it.

1/12 scale bolts with safety wire

Re: Winkleman Racing Brabham

I received a reply to the same questions in the Autosport Nostalgia forum. There was a book called Team Colors and gives the Winkelmann colors in the ICI code of P030 5107 (BMC Paint) and a Rolls Royce Silver color for the strips.

Re: Zero Paints Crazing

I had a snippy post on Zero paints facebook page with a picture of the problem. Funny, it's not there any more.....

Re: Zero Paints Crazing

I was wondering if the plastic was the issue as I stripped the paint. There is a color distortion on each of the 2002 kits where the plastic meets from each side on the trunk and roof and it show through after paint as a texture issue. The kits were thoroughly cleaned prior to paint. Been learning a...
