Try to get a bottle meguaires cleaner wax and try to polish off the black marker ink on the white colour.
Since the white paint surface on the AE86 is similiar to automotive paint it can still stand a little polishing.

Try not too overpolish as it might scratch or cause uneven colour. Just as long as you can polish off the black marker ink with little pressure using a lint free cloth should be good enough.

Good luck bro, hope this tip helps.

Quiksilve, is marker pen caused the original shinning black of the car gone and be white

oh like that even easier, you gotta re-apply the gloss, go to any DIY shop and buy the auto spa clear coat. this will bring back the gloss on the paint, but of course try it at a small area first, cause i dont know what the reaction of marker pen ink with the gloss will cause.

Since the clear coat is supposedly used after touching up with automotive paint to bring back optimum shine.

DIY shop? for example?

can be found at certain eneos.

one utama new wing DIY shop beside the store selling videos and music cds, behind auntie anne's

wow... juz off for a while n i can see some super poisonous pics!!! nice shots guys!

myke: i would like to get the R8 but too bad there is still no stock available yet... i juz hope im in singapore now...

jchue73: nice shots on the Peugeot 908 HDI FAP! DSLR camera ur using izit?

saru88: sorry to hear bout ur Ferrari mate... guess Hotwheels is the only choice if we seek models from the prancing horse..

DesmondC: firstly congrats on ur haul on the ae86... if possible, mind to show us some pics in order to clarify ur problem???

anyway, some outdoor shots on the Gran Turismo... it rained suddenly while i was taking the shots then went home take again...

i guess DesmondC problem is that he's trying to paint a black surface area using a marker pen, but encounter the marker pen has some sort of chemical that wash out the original black paint, AA AE86 base paint is white.. so he need to paint back the black color. hope this help

quiksilve: wow... u have the scuderia too! i wanna join the spam i'm sure you guys have TOP GEAR 2009 Calender, so coincidence this month car feature is F430 Scuderia



btw.. the DIY shop u mentioned is for hobbies? do they have air-brush service?

Jasonist: so nice! at last your Maserati enjoy the breeze air there.. just my opinion, i would paint the rims to black.. just like Gran Turismo S
this week theme would be Naza Italia

i SO want that Maserati GT... heard the sound at Naza when they re-aligning the car at the showroom.. the salesman is good enough to let me and my friends sit in the car!

Jasonist: ur maserati GT is absolutely stunning..

myke: sh!t... i missed the top gear calendar...

btw, the DIY shop quiksilve mentioned doesnt provide air-brush service la.. it's just a hardware shop...


i would love to snap some pics of my F430 scud too, but it is still hiding in my gf's house... my grandma is here... so my car has to be hiding in there for the moment... otherwise, she will nag me...

I see some prancing horses and three pointed star behind.. show more leh..

myke: Nice prancing horse man, i like the way you use the topgear calendar as backdrop, makes it even more poisonous, that store is actually a hardware DIY shop. perhaps can ask the tamiya hobby shop at the ground floor parking at Basement 1 if they offer custom air brushing service.

jasonist : damn those shots on the Maserati GT makes me wanna get one too.

quiksilve: I'll try and post the 599 pics in a while. Patience. Whoa... Scuderia Elite !


saru88: BBR does not do the F430 Scuderia in 1/18 scale. If you're really into F430 Scuderia, going 1/43 scale will give you a lot more variations and choices. But then again, the good ones like Redline and BBR / Gasoline are quite expensive too. In fact, they are more expensive than the Elite and you can buy two (or even more) Elites with one of 1/43 scale BBR. But if you're a hardcore collector, you get to collect quite a bit of race versions of the F430 which is cool. I love racing livery on the F430. Best is F430 GT versions. That's what I like about 1/43 scale. But I don't like the price.


JtuneD: Hmmm, the non-Elite Scuderia looks good too.


hokuan: Wah... Nice 575 GTZ Zagato two tone colour. My all red 575M Maranello coming. But don't know when... Anyway, I believe price for the 430 Scuderia Elite is around RM 250 after conversion without shipping cost on ebay.


Jasonist: Yes, used a DSLR for the shots. Looks like the Maserati Grand Turismo is a nice car indeed.


myke: What Top Gear calender? Wah, looks like EVERYBODY has a Scuderia. @#*$^%*&
