• A quick note on 3-D printed parts and Revell spray chrome , , , , [PICS]
  • You did these a year ago? Has the Revell spray been out that long already? I wonder if anyone else had a similar experience. *NM*
    • These were done May , last year. *NM*
  • Have you sprayed other 3d printed wheels but had a better outcome? *NM*
    • The other printed wheels I've done, I only did the outed rims on them but seemed to have held up a bit better but still not as well as the resin cast or kit plastic parts. In the future I'll try sealing them with BIN and/or silver lacquer first. *NM*
      • Makes me wonder with 3d parts if it's the porosity of the material, or if it's some kind of chemical reaction. *NM*
        • There are probably many different types of 3D print resin, just like casting resins...
  • I stiil say it's the resin. I used water washable for a while and had all kinds of issues. I think that's what I printed those with. *NM*
