you could but the decal is blue (not white as i said earlier) and not totally opaque. I don't want the red and white to show through. additionally i need to know where the color dividing line is so the decal will cover. I should have included the picture below.

I am doing a motorcycle cowling with red over blue separated by a white wedge-shaped decal. Intuitively, i would make a masking tape duplicate of the decal and apply over a gloss white base coat. Spray each color then replace the tape with the decal. I am concerned that the decal will be recessed???? Suggestions? Prayers? Joe.

Fantastic work. The story really makes it special. Thanks for sharing both with us! joe.

I like it. I am happy that they used the white background instead of the red they have used in the past. joe.

Thanks Tom: I will check the remaining chrome parts and probably do one large session. I was being lazy! I needed a boot in the... (right diection) Thanks to all who responded. Joe. NEVER BE AFRAID TO DO IT PERFECTLY!

Thanks Dog. I need a tie breaker Joe.

I have several parts which are marked only at the sprue attachment points. Can i give it a go or do i have to strip and undercoat first???? Thanks for any advice. Joe.

Sorry! RA=Red Alert. I have a build article for Red Alert from the other mag if you want it. Joe

Ha! Things are not so different in the city!!!!!! Joe.

Ohheck yes! Very nice. Joe.

X2 i did a '69 glacier blue camaro with a blue interior and i did not get it quite as nice as yours. I plan to recreate the scheme when i do the 1/12 version. Joe.

What you have are irreplaceable treasures. To add another generation to a family hobby is a great gift. I truly envy you! Joe.

I thought "Red Alert" had substantially different markings than what are shown on that box cover???? Do you you have a set of aftermarket decals for RA? Joe.

That is how i build too! You did a great Nova. Joe.

X2 Joe.

Very nice indeed. You obviously did not tush it. Joe.

Great builds. My favorite is the Piper Tri Pacer. Mom gave me a Cox .049 version. I see you deferred to PETA and did not lay out the dead mountain lion!!!!!! Thank you for sharing. Joe.

Great eye for detail and building skills. Joe.

He offers a clear enamel for use over the gloss enamel if you feel you must. Joe.

Very nice indeed. I buy one in a heartbeat if it was left hand drive. I had a '77 yellow/tan that was about the best car ever. Joe.

Great finish. Go Jr. I am sure dad was smiling!

I have the same kit on the bench now. I hope it comes out as well! Joe.

I am building that car now. The detail on the chassis will send me back to upgrade mine. Nice build. Thanks for the inspiration. Joe.

That is the sequence I follow. Joe.
