looks great buddy if your Kleared the canopy you could take it of and reklear it and the paint will just lift off.

Looks awesome! It's too bad about the canopy, Nige's advise may fix it up though.

Would say the same mate. Has to be worth a try.

Great finish.

Great feedback guys thanx
I could remove the canopy that's true Nige, but I'm worried it'll pull off a load of paint, besides wouldn't the Testors lacquer munched into the plastic of the canopy? Patience is a problem for me....

If you Kleared the canopy 1st no that should have protected it if not then no it won't shift it sorry.

Right ok what type of paint did you use mate.

Might be a good idea to get some klear mate it's great to dip canopies in gets rid of small scratches and a extra shine. Also if you make a mistake re-dip it in the klear and the old klear will lift off giving you a nice clean shinny canopy again.

I've used it loads of times always messing my canopies up lol

As it happens Nige I've got out of the habit of dipping canopy's, it seems I need to get back to doing it.
