  5. Cometh the moment, Cometh the man, & Dhu Varren sir you have surpassed the word masterclass, that's modelling & respraying on another plane, your skill shows no bounds. I have just one very simple question, the paint is it enamel or Acrylic, & I'll confess I have nooooo knowledge whatsoever about Acrylics, TIA BTB
  6. Maybe all this Irish for sale is to do with Brexit..or maybe the £ vs € when Brexit is all's said & done, get in before the rush ! to make a buck or two, or is it to do with Royal Mail postal charges changing, or are they just getting rid of their items, I've seen so much Irish for sale in the last month, 201's, 141's, 181's, 071's, N Class, I'm just wondering, & not forgetting the NIR's just saying BTB

  19. Hi Eoin & thanks for the info, now dos that reading between the lines mean the Enamel paint is safer !! or equal to acrylic TIA Paul
  20. Hi Noel & well done on all your endeavours to date, you're certainly set the marker, now mind telling me what you think is best to use when respraying carriages & wagons, in regards to either enamel or acrylic paint, I'm kinda thinking in the enamel is best, as I may be wrong but if you use acrylic dos that mean you have to cover it with a varnish to ensure its protected from wearing off...TIA Paul
  21. Craftsmanship par excellence Eoin, very well done, Paul
  22. roxyguy, you're going to have stop drinking that stuff.....
  23. Hi roxyguy, by mere coincidence earlier today I cleaned a wagon of its hand painted ( very badly ) blue paint,right down to the white base, by dropping it into a container of a nail varnish remover for about 20/30 minutes, blue in colour, can't remember the name, a few very thin bits had to be removed by a bit of scraping, but very happy with outcome, BTB
  24. Eoin, as long as it's the computer you needn't worry, interested to see this work on this model, looking good, Paul
  25. You ain't alone in that one Noel, for some unknown reason I was expecting a reminder of that also, even today!! Only waking up to that now!! & the new time schedule is better for me, especially on Sunday's !!!!!! BTB
