Now i only kno 2 places that sell these, hardware shop @ 1U lowest floor.. Most of the color got but some no stock..
1 more at bandar utama centrepoint, there also got a lot....
these spray cans got a lot of colors even flat black, gold, metalic, etc etc.... very suitable for gundam...
so far the spray does not harm the plastic even though i over spray on it b4...
Recommended by a guy from zero g.. smile.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

NOTE: Practice on how to control the spray 1st coz the pressure is quite strong, don't over spray, it will turn ugly coz paint too thick.... spray at least 20-30cm away...

Any questions regarding bout the spray cans, can PM me. smile.gif
Have a nice day

Same answer as the above.. using primer also same, it will not stick..

ABS are the Mg gundam's body frame parts.. they can be painted... nid to prime for the paint to stick well
i was referring to those joint parts... doh.gif my bad my bad... those joints are the ones who really kenot paint. doh.gif

This badger AB model still avaible? It is very very old model. More than 20+yrs.
By the way,If you want cheap AB and low budget compressor + AB, you can try at this multifilla in balakong. Similiar to this badger model but cheaper price.
*
yea... there's one guy selling in zero g. wow.. i didn't kno more than 20 years.... shakehead.gif
even though cheap but wun last so long like the good ones... no place to AB also if can afford.. cry.gif

This AB is the first AB I use for model kits. Is a low budget AB and outside mixing. Quite Ok for beginner user. The only problem is alway stuck with heavy paint.
Why no place AB? You just need a good ventilate place for minimum AB spec.
*
Staying abroad... i'm staying in a rented room... got space la.. but cant use coz sked ppl in da house dun like coz smelly... and no ventilation also

QUOTE(edan1979 @ Jan 29 2008, 09:02 AM)
ah.. i didn't mean that one... hmmm... i cant take picture because the gun is currently not with me...

it just something which can hold the can and there is a thing that push the spray head... you dont need to push the head with your finger... arghhh... how to explain... >_<
*
i understand wat u mean.. so the "device" helps us control how much we wan to spray rite?

z3r0717 set up a ventilator in ur room to suck out those paint smell! If u want to used those device u need to bare in mind that the pressure of those device will drop after certain period of usage! It is not suitable for long usage!

or u can come join those workshop out there in KL and do ur paint job there!
*
ventilator not cheap rite? if spray, also spray in my room ler.. smelly la ><
lazy go KL la, so far... hehe
just stick with spray can.. next time only get AB.

u dont need a dedicated ventilator really. being a bit imaginative tends to help a lot smile.gif

grab a fan, blow it out the window, and do your spraying work behind the fan. not as effective, but should handle most of the fumes already
*
QUOTE(300078 @ Jan 29 2008, 10:46 AM)
Find a big carton cut an opening in the wide surfaces then on the other side cut a smaller hole to place the ventilator in it (those kitchen ventilator onli cost around RM25-50). Now u got urself a place for AB and Spray can!
*
yea.. i've seen those custome carton b4 but erm..... i'll be spraying in my own room ler.. the room i sleep everyday. sweat.gif
wont that be bad for health???

Don't try to AB in a room without windows. The fume and smell can't go away. After your bed sheet and cloth asorb those smell. And the worst, your lung. Better take it to corridor or outside AB. Get a portable compressor + AB that easy to carry around. I DIY my spray booth and channel the fume and smell out using ducting. And use a mask with filter to protect myself.
*
i definitely wun do in my room... i dunwan to die young. tongue.gif
hmm... portable compressor + AB how much? cheaper than the normal AB?
