At ye ol' RR club, we have the Athearn/Earnst geared SW-7 chassis with the Bowser pot metal SW1500 shell on it. That puppy is a real tiger and will pull the sheet rock off the wall.:eek: :D ;)

I have had the best success removing lettering by use of 600 grit sand paper. I gently 'wet sand' the lettering to be removed, and get a nice and smooth finish which is ready to accept the replacement lettering. I use Testor's Dullcoat, thinnned 50%, as a final overspray. ;) :D

Thanks fer the update Tom. As I mentioned, I have retired my Pollyscale colors to brush application only. I did a black overcoat on the roof of a diesel I'm doin' for a friend, and that stuff brushed on absolutely great, no brush marks at 'tall. For my airbrush application, I shall continue...

Dang it - - am I late today. Ah well, been a busy one. Nice day here t' boot, sunny and 70. Nelson, Ima gonna keep m' powder dry, 'cause the next time Casey's cap tries to climb up my leg in the 'Blue Note', I'm gonna blast that sucker.:mad: :D

I have equipped several of my switchers with the Earnst gears also, and they do run much better and are more reliable. However, I am not an electrical wizard and wonder why the amp pull of the lokie drops with the extra gears installed??? Anyone know why this is?:confused: :)

I am with ya on the Floquil preference there Marty. I have never had a bad result with that stuff. I must admit that I did not know about not shaking the Polly Scale, but stirring it. I shall have to try that. I did recently stir my Modelflex instead of shaking it and noted that it went on...

I remember the 60's and watchin' the Twins games to see what the latest Hamm's Bear commercial was about. They won many an award with the Hamm's Bear advertising.;) :) Doggone it, what's that fuzzy thing that just ran over my boots - - - :eek: :confused:

Tom, I have never had to use a clear 'overspray' on any of my undercoating. I always let the undercoat dry for at least one week prior to applying the next color. Never had a problem with any undercoat bleeding through the color coat. I have not tried to airbrush Pollyscale since our...

I like 'em both. Sometimes it's fun to go out and do a bunch of switchin', and other times I just like to 'let 'em run.':D

Pack rattin' eh:confused: Well, I even have a jar of sawdust packed away. Never know when I might need the stuff?!?!? I don't think any of us should get rid of anything 'cause if'n we do, the continent might come up several feet and ruin a lot of folks beachfront property.:p :rolleyes: :)
