Very Nice Scott will be worth it's weight in gold in the long run.So...let's think about some more work for Scott?? Insulation for the pipes a removable box of sorts with insulation for the pump....I think I am starting to understand Scott "I'll just keep a good drip going Kevin"

She's coming out OK the idea with the different colors underneath was a Big Flop shades of black would be the answer but not from me mask from now on.Speaking of mask as fast as I paint a panel or area over the NM the Kuboki tape comes off the only section were the red is the tape stayed longer up came a little silver.You let it sit to long the adhesive starts to bite.The NM finish is like a B in my book grade wise but once the panel washes happen it may be Ok again.I still have to do invasion stripes on the bottom and the black up top wing/tail. -

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E Darwin 1942

Some are saying Lacquer Thinner but found this"I also read a thread some where that said a friend had Diosol analyzed and it was made up of 55% Xylene and 45% Toluene. I can buy Xylene, but have not been able to find Toluene. So I guess lacquer thinner might be the thing to get." old MRR forum:modelrailroadforums.com/forum/index.php?threads/what-is-a-good-substitute-for-dio-sol.18816/
