I love my 90s Mad Bull, there's something so cool about them. Mine's is completely standard but I fancy putting oil shocks on it. 

After reading this thread the other night I was reminded that I still need to change the yellow wheels on mine's for white WW ones, which I have coming to me from @toyolien so I should have a spare yellow set soon

Loving the hydro dipping, do you mind sharing where you buy your supplies from? I need to do a very simple honeycomb effect on a cockpit set, which would otherwise be a nightmare to brush-paint. 

Does it stick well to lexan?

Hydro dip sticks well to anything ;)

youtube shows people dipping Everything from shoes to car parts

I’ve always given the thing I’m hydro dipping an undercoat first but it may just take to lexan in its own 

got my dip sheets from AliExpress (dream car accessories) sometimes it comes rolled and in a tube (normally the ones with more expensive shipping) otherwise it may come folded.

and got the Hydrodip activator off ebay (2 cans for £15)

 

hope that helps

My white Wild willy wheels arrived from Jadlam (£11 delivered) and I’ve set about my plan to colour coordinate them

so masked

i also wrapped the outside with paper to stop the paint overspray impacting on the tyres sealing and used some plastic bearings to stop paint build up inside the bearing housing 

2 coats of white plastic primer and they are almost ready for the orange ;)
