Gerry's Hobby Thread

Post by gpfredette »

Good Day,

I'm hoping to make headway this year on several projects - with the goal of at least one model a week painted.

I finished this one yesterday but started it way before the end of last year.

I guess we will see how well I do.

Have a nice day.

Thank you,

Understood.

I started this one sometime last year and just finished it up yesterday.

Everything else I'm planning on painting will be painted wholly this year though some may have been primed last year - it is way to cold here to be priming anything right now.

I do appreciate the reminder.

Are you still in AZ?
Do you have a basement?
it's cold here (MO), too, but I can prime year-round.

Either prime in the basement
or
Keep everything warm inside, run outside and prime, then bring it all back inside.

I've done both with success. I mean, the wife complains about the smell, either way... but I pretend not to hear. LOL

Yup - Still in Arizona but the northern part where we got 5 inches of snow on 01/06/19.

No Basement and my wife is not easy to ignore plus we got a new dog and I'm not sure how he would react to the smell.

I have some stuff to keep me occupied for a while so I'll start priming again when the temperatures allow it.

I do appreciate the suggestions though.

I live in Canada. Where it can get to -30 celsuis. It is never too cold out ;)

Pop that sucker in some hot water (not boiling! just hot) and let the can warm up, then step outside and spray. bring it back in and leave it in the bathroom or wherever.

Fortunately for me, I have an unfinished basement so I just go prime down there when I need to.

Or just use the fireplace. Hold in them big metal tongs for about 1-2 minutes and BOOM.. it's ready. ;-)
