luckily the interior is not all that easy to see all the hidden spots. this black plastic is a pregnant dog to paint white! this photo shows where the tub used to be glued to the frame. i will clean that up before re-glueing it. that won't show up either since it's gonna be glued the same. i am glad that the seat is the only white on the model box lol  Hosted on Fotki |

Don't get Mad!.....Get GLAD! (old commercial) i see a couple tiny spots that show, but other than that it's clean! i used LACQUER black primer right over the ENAMEL lol , people always say it can't be done... front rims look pretty cool all black, but they have glue on them so i will be putting the discs back on them. i kinda flubbed up putting the front rim in after the tire was painted, but actually it looks cool...like it's been used!
