Aargh... the gloss white paint is still sticky to the touch. Was hoping to get the first coat of red on this morning but it'll have to wait till tonight or even tomorrow.  :banghead:

Nick,

Give it a coat of Klear, directly over the sticky gloss. It seals it off and you can decal it within 15 mins usually.

Hm, does that mean I can slow down my JP6 to replace the 707C? It would make next week a little less manic if so.

Your not getting off the hook that easy LOL

Frankly, the chance of the JP6 getting finished in time is extremely remote. There's just not enough hours left to do that and the others on my plate and now I've a funeral to go to before the Cosford day.

Sorry, but that's life.  :banghead:

Oh dear, that's not good news. Hope something else comes along pretty sharpish.

True that is life kit. Not to worry. Im sure we can cook something up. As for the GR-9 Gondor's Harrier should do the trick.

Tim, sorry to hear that, hope something else comes up soon.

Kit, sorry to hear about the funeral.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Yup all the best with the job hunting Tim
