Wow! The rims look amazing! Why did you mould so many, are you selling them? What products did you use for paint and polish?

Hello Alexander, thanks! And yes, that's why I casted some more. I mean, I made a master, I made the mold, I had the resin, so why not make more and try to cover the costs?
And I must be honest; it appears to be working haha.

I started covering the whole wheel in vallejo surface primer, than used Alclad II gloss black base. I covered the center with Vallejo Model air, covered that and uses Aclad II Chrome for the outside.
When finished, I brushed on some tamiya X-22? gloss clear on the center, to make it shiny. That's is basically all, but it does make that wheel come out very nice.

And if you're interested; Both wheels (Hallibrand & Kelsey Hayes) will sell for 30Euro's without spinners and 35E with spinners.

Actually i meant the body paint refering to the last photos you posted^^

Ah ok, the paint i used for the body, are those horrible MoTip and Dupli rattlecans. I haven't been using rattlecans for almost ten years now and Last week I remembered why...
But, 1K paint is not that hard to polish, so I could get most mistakes out. I used Microscale polish pads and Novus polish

Very nice! I have the 1973 release about halfway done. I need a new set of tires as mine are ruined.
