Services We Provide:
Dinky, Lesney King Size and Corgi
Diecast Restorations Undertaken.
The Diecast Models I restore and the Code 3’s I build all undergo a
complete process before they are returned to their owners or listed
on EBay. They are stripped back to bare metal using Caustic Soda or
Paint Stripper before one or more coats of primer and then sanding
is done.
Primer is then re-sprayed and lightly sanded before the finish coats
are applied. As many as five coats go on my models to get the
required results.
Any detailing is then done . Next are the decals (if applicable).
Drying time varies and so does the method of drying (Sunlight,
spotlights or ovens).
Some models will have been painted in matt finish as this was the
original finish on that particular model. I always try to use authentic
replacement parts like new tires, decals and small fitted objects.
Most of the models I restore are in very play worn condition and
really need to be restored. I also partially restore some vehicles
(like trucks and Vans) when parts are still in good condition but
some are badly worn or missing.
All models receive many hours of work before I am satisfied with the
result and will place it up for auction or return to the owner so be
patient when having a restoration project done.
I hope you like the work I do as I put a lot into the diecast I restore
or rebuild.
