    Some advice:

    (1) Separate the metal body and plastic parts.
    (2) Use paint trimmer to wash the paint.
    (3) Use sand paper (Tamiya sandpaper #1000) to send the metal body
    (4) Spray Primer (coating), I usually use Mr. Hobby/Ganzu Super White
    (5) Sand the body again when the priemer dried
    (6) Spray your selected color (I usually use Tamiya Spray can, you need 2 bottles for 1 layer of a 1/18 car )
    (7) Optional: 2 layer of paint will looks better
    (8) Wait the paint dried, Spray Clear coating (I use Mr Hobby Ultra Gloss clear UVcut) - I usually spray 2-3 layers of clear coat
    (9) use soft sandpaper to sand the surface of the model
    (10) use polish compound (Tamiya polish compound) to polish the model
    (11) use polish compound (Tamiya polish compound fine) to polish the model
    (12) Apply Tamiya Modeling Wax by Tamiya Compound Applicator

    can i say this again to the amatuer photographers, and i mean this in the nicest way, move your camera back a foot and then crop the photo down. half of them are too out of focus to see.

    The next project is a 1/18 F355 World Tour... and F355 Nordica...
