Re: Garage KIts.US Colors by Life Tones - Airbrush ready pai
I have no idea what the formulation for FreakFlex is, so I don't know what causes one to be sandable and the other not. To be perfectly honest, I've never even used FreakFlex, because it's not available anywhere down in South Florida (at least not near me), and if I can't get something easily, I'm not going to buy it.
I can tell you that I've had no problem in sanding Life Tone paints with fine grit sand paper, though admittedly not wet-sanding, as I've never really found a need for wet sanding myself.

Take a look, tell me what you guys think ... is the set up easy enough to follow?
Keep in mind, it's still VERY much a work in progress. I haven't added the pictures, descriptions or all the products yet, and I still haven't added the credit card and Paypal links either.
Prices are still tentative ... I had to put in something.

The Good News: the website is 90% complete and the paints will be arriving in the next couple of weeks ... so get ready guys.
The Bad News: as with everything else, prices have gone up, both in raw materials, shipping etc., so the paints are going to be a bit more expensive, but I guarantee you're going to love the new formulation, and they are WELL worth it in comparison to other paint brands on the market today.
But more Good News: since I know that these paints have been "unavailable for a while" and people have been out, or are close to running out, I'm going to do an introductory price special for the first 90 days of availability to allow everyone to restock supplies at as close to the original prices as I can get.
In other news, here's a mock up shot of the paint rack that will be making it's debut at next years Wonderfest ... the printing is being done right now.

DANG IT! I thought I caught everything!
Okay fixed .. Thanks Susan.
I'm taking tomorrow off work,and going to start uploading the pictures of the paint bottles as well as creating the color chips for each color, so you'll all start seeing those go up over the next few days.

Re: Garage KIts.US Colors by Life Tones - Airbrush ready pai
Thanks eveyrone ... if there's any suggestions that anyone has to make the site easier, please let me know ... it's still very much a work in progress, but it's functional at the very least.
I'm working on the "Gallery" page right now, and hope to have that up in a few days, so people can start to upload pictures of kits that have been painted using the paints.
Bill ... the Enhancers are arriving on Monday, the second I get them I will ship them out to you straight away.
Also, if anyone needs to reach me regarding the paints, or just has any questions about them ... you can email me at colors@garagekits.us ... I have the email on my IPhone, so I should get back to you almost immediately, or worse case scenario within 12 hours.

Re: Garage KIts.US Colors by Life Tones - Airbrush ready pai
Just confirmed, the final parts of my initial order from Life Tones (the Enhancers, Top Coats, Primers and the last few remaining colors) will be arriving on Monday.
And all the new colors will be arriving later in the week.

Jesse,
Sites looking good! I was wondering when you will have the color chips available for view?
