I decided to move the forums to this one from giant scale. You can I have posted photo along the build gust go to another cessna


The last couple of days I have been painting the fuse. I had so much bad luck that a just want to strip it down and start all over. I guess it’s my fault because I rushed and did not let the base color dry before adding other color. Here are some pictures to show the damage.

The wing and wheel pants turned out OK! I guess that counts for something

The first thing you need to do is get rid of the cheap masking tape and buy some of the blue tape designed for delicate finishes for your stripeing. The standard masking tape will usually pull up paint every time. You do of course need to be patient and allow the paint to dry prior to masking for another color. Good Luck, Dave
