Painting Brass

[doctorwayne]

And what detail parts would those be that one would add to bumper posts?

What? You're using them straight out-of-the-box?  Are they not already pre-painted with brass-coloured paint?  Do they come with nut/bolt/washer detail?  Or weld beads?  My word!  The quality of items they're offering nowadays is shocking! 

My advice regarding the painting of brass is exactly that...obviously, ignore the parts which don't apply to your situation. 

Personally I went with the Walthers version, assembling them, then a wash and rinse, air dry, then air brushed, no primer required.  Also, no need to isolate the rails, where the bumper is located, from the rest of the track.











I do hope that you'll share some photos, though, as I'm curious to see them.
