The car, driven by Baker, Henna and Maher, finishes in 66th place without reaching the finish line due to turbo problems.

AK Interactive's "Super chrome" product is a special ultra-gloss alcohol-based ink that includes a resin component that improves the optical and mechanical properties of the ink. This formula optimizes adhesion and gloss level, and helps stabilize pigments. The extra-fine particles remain perfectly aligned with the surface and offer an extremely strong mirror effect. This paint is UV resistant and suitable for application to all surfaces, but works best for smooth surfaces. It can be applied with an airbrush and with a brush.

This product has been designed by AK Interactive to clean the rest of the product from your airbrush or brush as well as to dilute the "Super chrome" without losing its properties.

The first thing we have done when we see the content of the Scale Lab detail up set for the Sauber Mercedes C9 has been to set ourselves a challenge, which we invite you to join... and that is to find what is missing or what to add to the set that is not already included. We are still looking for an answer. The best thing to do? Take a look at the photos...

But how complete! It's the first thing that came to mind after seeing the content of this detail up set for Nunu's Porsche 911 SC RS. Not only does it include up to three photo etched plates and some turned metal parts, but it also includes the tobacco decals that we miss in the model, masks to paint the windows, and even masks to delimit the area of the bodywork to paint with Rothmans blue. I said, but how complete!
