Tutorial how to achieved Mirror Finish Paint job. 1/24 scale model car

Where do I get the dremel like tool you used to polish with? Thx...

That’s a great polishing work,congratulations,look’s great

Very nice. Result is beautiful.
I was wondering what color/manufacturer paint and clear coat you used. I usually decant my paints and clear. Letting them breath and let the propellant gas out before I use them in my airbrush.
Thanks so much.

new to polishing so forgive me for sounding dumb. I am guessing this process is done after the clear coat has set for a few days to harden?

Do you apply the decals and clear coat first

Hey dude what kind tool mini drill did u used? What merk?

Did you wet sand the small parts?

Huge difference. Looks great.

Is it clear coated before you start sanding?

Did you not flat out the paint before doing the clearcoat??

Hi, question, do you clear coat before sanding? Thanks for you help

I’m assuming that the process with a decaled car is the same as the decals are underneath the clear coat to start with?? I’m VERY new to the hobby so no idea lol 😅

I’m trying to remove the paint rash on my Autoart model taking reference from your method. I sanded up to 10000 grit sandpaper and polished with Tamiya compound using sponge wheel on grinder (from coarse to fine), but end up I still see some scratch marks!
Is cotton wool wheel better than sponge please?
Should I move to fine polishing compound after sanding with 10000 grit paper?

This works for paint waterlike-drops ?

Can you use the same method To Hotwheels ? New to the hobby

hey mat great vid!. Quick question. In my last build i tried mr clear uv cut lacquer one, let it dry for over a week, and when i did my first wet sand with 2k grit sponge it left scratched i couldnt get out. i reapplied clear coat again, lett it dry over a week and tried 4k grit sponge from godhand and same thing happened? do you know why this could be happening? it's getting frustrating now. thanks in advance and great videos!

Can you only use 1200 grit sandpaper to sand the body??thats the highest grit paper i have. Thank you

I have a bit of orange peel after spray painting on my model, should i sand it and then clear coat, or sand after clear coat and leave the orange peel in the paint 🙂

I take it that you are sanding on clear coat not straight paint …

Nice tutorial!I had a question, if once I have given the colour, it shows orange peel, can I apply the transparent and then sand it and apply the polish or do I have to sand over the color and then apply the transparent one and then polish

Its glossier than my actual car

Thank you for the helpful video. Do I need to sand the base coat before putting on the gloss clear coat? Thank you

Great video can i just start with 3000 grade and finish with 5000 and use tamiya coarse,fine and finish for polishing.

If i wanted to use this method on a gunpla kit, how would you recommend getting into the panel lines and recesses to ensure those areas also habe that smooth finish?

Looks great! With my painting skills, I need this! It certainly beats using sanding pads from 3,600 to 12,000. Thanks! I am a new subscriber.

I have 2 car bodies that are molded in color. I'm happy with them, so I don't want to paint over them. If I apply a clearcoat first, could I sand away a molding seam without damaging the color? I'm coming back and I'm re-learning. Thank you!

What is the RPM of the mini grinder? Would a Dremel be too much or is it pretty much the same tool? Thanks for your time.

Great tutorial. Can you tell me, was that a clear coat that you painted over the paint? Or was that just simply a high glass paint. Thanks for your time.

The first model I painted with airbrush was the Ferrari F40. Because of the disappointing looks of the painting I quitted building modern cars sets, and focused on planes and tanks where shiny finishings is not a must. With your video, I'm ready again to give modern cars models a second try. Thanks!

Hey man, what grit or model do you use as a "grinder mini polishing wool"? Iam not sure which one to buy or what to look for 😬

Fantastic if only most modellers knew this. It would take their finished product from toy looking to real vehicle.

What if you don't paint your diecast cars but you just want to keep them really shiny and maybe at best they have a couple scratches that aren't deep or minor blemishes? What do you do?

excellent! what kind of blue paint did you use? does it have some kind of flock in it?

Awesome dude.

❤❤❤ that's amazing, thanks for the video ✌️😎

YOU are a genius!!!!

Such a good video! Excellent content and even better production. Well thought out. I’ve been researching for my first car build, and let me tell you, there is some less than stellar content out there. 😀

Greta vid - Can I ask a couple of questions please .

How many clear coats did you do before hand ?

What type of paint did you use - acrylic ?

If I’m putting decals on is it best to do it after the final wax coat ? Or will this cause problems with decals ?

Thanks and once again great vid ❤

do I put decals before or after polishing?

Awesome

Perfect thanks. Actually I sand hard edges and wipd the paint on it 😂 . You just do flat and even part for the sanding?

Is it a laquer enamel or acylic paint?? Thsnks

Very good result! Im impressed.
Did you use 1K coat or was it 2K?

Bravo , great job

Probably the most helpful video I’ve seen yet on gap filling.

I need to know how to do a paint job that is worthy and ready for polish.
