After learning to use a polishing kit effectively and painting many models with lacquer I wanted to see how the same effort would affect a hobby enamel finish, so I painted this Corvette with Testors Yellow enamel. The finish turned out well, but not well enough to outshine lacquer. Both the gloss and the durability of the paint was lacking. Therefore, this remains the last model I ever painted with a hobby enamel with no plans to return.

 

Aftermarket items added to this Corvette are spark plug wires, fuel line and fitting, heater hoses, and Stevens International red line tires.
