You know 'Dino', I did say "generally speaking" for a good enough reason in suggesting super glue was not a good first choice for plastic. On a...
Yeah, OK, you know best, I'll shut up. Steve
I agree in theory with using superglue as a gap filler, but be very careful. You really only want to use it on a material that has a similar...

If anybody is having problems with decals two products makes all the difference. 'Micro Set' makes it easy to slide them into place, 'Micro Sol'...
Thanks Hans. I haven't seen that book and had no idea any of my models were in it! Not surprised though, nobody tells me anything :-( I suppose...
The whole 'grey' myth was started many years ago from the misinterpreting of some poor colour photo's, and has meant the wrong colour has been...
It is an excellent book, one of those all to rare books that is based on new research and a genuine insight into the subject. I recommend it!...
They both look modern to me, probably from the same manufacturer. The real Bugatti T52 was a childs car, and called a T52 by the Bugatti factory....

Terrific web site, well done Ray. It was reading of the fabulous models built by your father that inspired me to get into model cars as a kid....
You could try an aerosol of 'plastic primer' available from an auto accessory store, followed by an acrylic auto top coat of the colour you want....
LOL! I'm with you there. Mine would fire into action first time it was switched on, or maybe three weeks later, with no apparent reason as to why....
