I know others have done this on video. I remember I learned from watching Sol. But with new people I figured it would be good to bring it up again. Did you see Quirky's comment? He removed the tampos with an eraser! That requires elbow grease.

Try it on a casting you don't love first. I always try new things on cars I don't mind messing up. Also I think it dulls the paint a little. But I've done it on several models after seeing this on Sol's Diecast Odyssey . 2AHD cat says the cheap dry erase markers don't work as well? I had tried nail polish remover before and this works easier.

Good to know. I actually didn't know the trick with the dry erase markers.👍

I used dry eraser markers from the 99 Cents Only Store on the red Hot Wheels 1964 Corvette to remove the white circles...worked fine.

Yep, it's a good trick. I learned from Sol of Sol's Diecast Odyssey

I do this so much I can smell it as I watch you do it 😆. Just one thing, you don’t want to use any color, if you use a black marker on a yellow car it will stain. I see that orange stained the blue a bit, but I think a alcohol wipe can take that off. Your custom game it getting stronger my friend

Thanks Alex! I'm practicing. I don't think I'll ever be as good as you with the fine detail paint!

Use QUALITY dry erase markers. The cheap ones will mess up the paint or not work well

It works fairly well. I should have said on video that it doesn't work as well on white cars!

Thanks! I figured I would pass on what I learned from Sol. You, David and Tiz sort of pushed me into customs. I'm working on a few now. What's your favorite of the "Big 3" Ford, GM or Mopar? Obviously I'm obsessed with Ford.
