nmayhew Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 wow this is generally on 'another level' across the board, but i am particularly interested in what you did with the canopies i don't think i have ever seen that before? may i ask foil you used - self-adhesive? - and if not also what glue are you using? how do you get the cuts of the foil to look so uniform and not to look hand-made? I would love to see a YouTube tutorial of this method! who knows, it might even make those vac B-24 turrets look good?! thanks for sharing and can't wait to see more!

Yep, it is self adhesive aluminum foil for AC systems. I buy it from a local hardware store. It's with a different thickness - 40 and 80 microns. And the most important - it is with paper, gloss base. I do not have a youtube channel , but will try to make some tutorial - how to aluminum foil over clear parts Cheers my friend LSP_Kevin and nmayhew 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
