I have custom painted many plastic models with results excellent enough that the hobby shop asked me to do some painting for them (I declined). With plastic models it's generally easy to separate the details from the shell for painting and decaling. Now I'm looking at doing several brass diesels and cabooses. I am not looking for cleaning, priming, baking, airbrush technique or any of the other topics already so well covered here and elsewhere on the internet. Specifically, unlike plastic, everything is soldered together on brass models, so I'm here looking for hints and tips on painting and decaling brass models where the details are already in place. For example, I wouldn't think it is feasible to unsolder parts and resolder them after painting without the heat marring the paint. However, I could be wrong. That's why I'm here! Thanks.
