I thought I could just throw the prepainted pieces of this kit all together and that has not been the case. The body had so much lint in the finish that I had to sand the whole thing down and repaint it all...including the tedious trim. But I got that out of the way.

I had thought that having a "prepainted" kit would save me some time..... but I had to repaint everything except the chassis! And Whomever, painted everything with a brush ON the sprues! A beautiful shade of gold for the brake calipers that I DON'T have! Cut them off the sprue, and now there are white spots needing to be touched up. Can't help but chuckle.

I bought this prepainted.....using a brush......YUCK! I get to sand out seams and paint. FUN!

Can't you strip the sprues as a whole of the paint? Dip them in a bath of paint stripper? Might be a whole lot easier than sanding each piece

Most of the pieces are under carriage, so they're not that visible......but I stay awake at night knowing there are seams and that they must be eliminated! I think I botched the body paint job and I hadn't noticed on its original project. I just went over the lint - think HAIR - with 600 to 2000 and that took care of it. Mostly, I just thought it was funny that whomever I bought this kit from had gone to that much trouble to paint pieces ON the sprues with a brush, only to be done over with a rattlecan OFF the sprues.

I feel your pain. I'm currently sanding tanks on a truck. Tanks that will never be seen, yet I've spent a few hours already on them.
