Thanks sandboarder, Happy with the blue and the way it turned out first time I used it the blue was flat and dull did not clear it to me awhile to work out why, It needs clear to make it work oh so does there Gold paint need clear too and its a very gritty paint too, Interior was a trail if it did not work would of repainted.

Went to glue glass in place, I sat the body up side down on a bit of soft cloth so it would not scratch the roof and had to sit weight on the glass to help hold in place while white glue dryed.
After ten min's a checked to see how it was going, What I found the soft cloth has stuck to the roof :shock: pullinghair Look's like the clear was not a 100% dry. So me had a very big dummy spit and packed it away with the sh--s. Might look at it at a later date. :roll:

I was going to say this morning to put the body aside for a week as the acrylics stay soft for a week or 2.

Ya used white glue as the other glue I used to put glass in went hard in the bottle, :roll: did not think 20 cent would be that heavy.
crossed I might be about to light sand it out or polish it out.
Just knew something was going to happen as it was going to good. Murphy's law the bugger taps me on the shoulder every morning and tells me he's going to bugger my day. yes! yes!
