Not new to this site or Modelling but still returning.

Okay, that subject line didn’t make sense, but I couldn’t figure out a better way to say it.

I’m not new to this forum. I used to have an account many years ago. It’s under an email account I can’t remember. sigh. Anyway…

I’ve been modelling off and on for years. I just had several models damaged beyond repair from a fire in my office. So starting up again. Once I get a grip on this site I’ll post some pictures. I’m currently working on the finishing touches on a Tamiya 1:48 Douglas A-1H Skyraider. Having a bit of an issue with my masking peeling off my paint.

Hope everyone is having a great start to the new year.

Mike

Welcome aboard lots to learn here.

De-stick the tape,I stick it to the fridge a couple of times,removes some tack.

If your using acrylic paints,you need a good enamel or lacquer primer,and it needs to cure,not just dry

Hope this helps.

Hi Mike! Welcome back to the hobby and the Forum!

Ditto on what Tojo said above. I use Rustoleum primer and decant it for use in my airbrush. Large models I use it right out of the can. Big can lasts a long time.

Stay safe.

Welcome back Mike…

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

How long are new members on post quarantine?

I think it’s 3 or 4 days. Hang in there. It’ll be over before you know it.

Stay safe.
