Hi Pete

REALLY daft question as I've not tried painting rubber band tracks since coming back to the hobby...... what stops the paint coming off when you you bend them around the idler and drive sprocket?

Thanks

Hi Andrew the way I do rubber band tracks first wash them in warm soapy water and a toothbrush then use wire wool on both sides of the track, I use a AK track primer then what ever colour you choose. Never had paint come off yet.

Pete,
Now that looks really pleasing to the eye, subtle and the metal edges come out as they should, great build.

Hi Mike that's what I was aiming for a subtle finish and now to over do it, for a change I'm actually pleased with the finish so thank you for a great comment.

Hi John so I think you like it then, eventually I had to make one I was happy with, well almost the grill's let it down but as they say you learn from your mistakes, will try harder on the next one.
