Thats pretty sweet that you can buff the silver! Ill have to try that... like you I have had problems with the metalizers. If I can get anywhere near the metalizer shine without the pain Ill be hooked!

Do you plan to future your P-51 upon completion?

Although I have heard good things about Future, I am still a little hesitant to try it yet. I have plans to experiment with it, but for this project I will be clearcoating with Model Master Laquer Overcoat, with which I have had good results in the past.

How did you know I drink too much coffee?

I like this buildup article very much MN, keep it up, and I don't mean that in a viagra sort of way.

Thanx to all for your positive feedback! We'll keep those installments coming. And I don't mean that in a Ron Jeremy sort of way.

And from another Southern Californian, I say well done! I love the running commentary as well; it reminds me of me! Maybe there's something in the smog we breathe....!

The last time I was this eager to see a third installmant of anything was this past November watching trailers for the "Lord of the Rings, the Return of the King"! ;-)
