Wow - thank you all SO Much for all the great advice... I'm SO excited to get started on my next custom now with all these new tricks...And oh, my, gosh - the customs you are showing me look absolutely factory done! They are simply amazing!!Can I go off topic and ask you okiegirl - how many hanks of hair did it take to rehair the G3 Styling pony?
Good advice, I found it very helpful, too.One question, though...Carnation, what do you mean by sand exactly? Like sand paper, or some other thing?*edit* Also, does anyone have an opinion of the Krylon sealant? That's the stuff I have.
Over the paint I use sanding film I picked up from my local hobby shop, they do lots of scale model railroads and such. Anyways. It's an assortment pack of small plastic sheets and measured in microns, from 44 all the way down to .5 The ultra fine only has the slightest bit of roughness and doesn't feel like sandpaper at all. Best 10$ investment ever. The "roughest" sandpaper I use (not including when I have to scrap everything and start over) is 600g wet/dry, and that's only for body prep.High quality paints put up with wet sanding a lot better than the cheap stuff- cheapy paint comes right off with water actually.
