PRR 19182 - X54 Construction Completed and Primer

 


PRR 19182 was finally primed after some final details were installed. The model was originally grit blasted using baking soda and a Paasche Air Eraser to eliminate any unsightly build lines. The lines while visible in harsh or extreme angles were not detectable to the touch. The model was cleaned, allowed to dry, and then air brushed using Floquil primer. Once the primer sets, a coat of Scalecoat II Boxcar Red #2 will be applied. Having seen the images in primer now, it clearly shows how well the printing of the X54 is compared to similar models.
