I dont know the scale.Originally posted by Kferros View Post
I just emailed Callie and told her the manufacturer, the plane and the wing span. That how I work with her. If anything is not what I like she corrects it fast.BVM Bandit, EFlite Carbon Z T-28, EFlite Carbon Z Cub, EFlite Promethus, FW Avanti S, FW A-10 ThunderBolt, FW P-51 Mustang, EFlite Convergance, EFlite Carbon Z Cessna 150, EFlite Habu, EFlite Styker Q-F27, HSD Navy Super ViperComment

Just watched the video, lots of great tips.
One question I do have, how and do you remove any factory decals or paint before you start the painting process, or do you leave them on and just fill over them?Comment

Remove decals by using ice cubes.Originally posted by STRlKER View Post
Remove paint using acetone and a rag (stay away from plastic parts and hinges).
Yes it takes alot of time but saves on weight.

Doesn't the acetone melt the foam?Comment

EPO is not affected by acetone. Wear gloves and have plenty of ventilation!!Comment

Rub the decal with ice till it comes lose and it will not damage the foam.Originally posted by STRlKER View Post

I never would’ve guessed that. 👍Originally posted by Robert Belluomini View Post
I worked in the auto body business for 25 + years and I figured it would melt it instantly.
Have you ever tried lacquer thinner?
Thanks for the tip 😃Comment
