Future Wax Questions???

[tabletoptrucker]

Ok... So I have tried to use the Future route once, and Im still not sure Im as happy with it as I could be.

I have seen it mentioned here about just Dipping the body in the Future and also airbrushing it on (thats what I did).

Whats your opinions and procedures to make this work as great as it sounds like some of you have gotten it to.

I've used it on a couple of p/u builds and was satisfied with it.I just used a large brush to brush it on with.Left no brush marks.

What were you not happy about?

[tabletoptrucker]

well, perhaps I didnt get the spray heavy enough to make it all flow together and smooth out like it should, but it just didnt look like it evened and smoothed out. While it doesnt have serious orange skin look, it does seem to have uneven coverage.

i just did this with a mack i built. i dipped all the pieces and let the excess run off and left it go overnite and WOW what a shine....

[tabletoptrucker]

I guess I will give the dipping a try.

What do you use to remove it if need be?

I have read where Windex will take it off but don't know how fresh the Future needs to be for it to work. I have never tried copy/paste a site to a forum but will try now. Try this site for Future info on models. If it doesn't work I can post the site for you.

Well congrats. You copy Paste worked. I never tried future yet but hear good stuff about it. Every time I go to the store I look for it but never seem to find it. I think all other builders beat me to it.

Here are a couple of sites for more info.

The second link is to a forum pertaining mainly to aircraft but the "Tools 'n' Tips" section has over 7000 topics with 50000 replies. I doubt all would be useful but plastic is plastic regardless of its shape and body work, paint, scratching and numerous other points won't be genre specific. This could be very helpful to alot of us.
