The putty were filled after the back plastic that I paste already dry out. Please insert the putty slowly and completely so that it will make a solid like object. |
Mr. Hobby color red is waiting for the dry time. The unwanted area were masking and after the paint is completely dried, it will leave only the inner side of the seat colored red making the seat have two tone. |
