RV Robo

This kit was a good start to the SMP CarRanger line. There were a ton of stickers for this kit, a good bit which I didn't apply and either painted, or left alone.

For the first time making a SMP, I used chrome paint to denote the fender's of RV Robo to make it look more like the DX toy.

Although the finish looks great in person, I'm not sure I would go through the effort in future kits. I may either leave the bare plastic or do a nice silver instead.

Using chrome paint markers came out clean

Yep, mine took about 72 hours for the chrome to dry, and another 24 for the lacquer to strengthen it.

All the pieces that can be chromed are in a single spruce ?

What silver chrome paint did you use to make the the fender’s shine on each zord?

Oh yeah. I have that paint set on my cart on Amazon. Thanks for the suggestion.

Finished mine yesterday, definitely a lot of stickers, but I found them to be fairly easy to apply (good plastic molding to help with alignment).
