In this third and final episode of the tank car project for the 7.5" gauge railroad flat car, I paint the tank car and complete the final assembly including decals and securing hardware. I discuss how I marked each part for reassembly, and considered assembly order to prevent scratching the paint during the process. I also demonstrate how I applied the large adhesive vinyl decals (purchased online). Paint was Rustoleum 2x paint+primer "Real Gloss Orange" and "Gloss White." The painted orange looks a little lighter than the decal despite spending hours down rabbit hole looking for a match. They make a Chevy Orange high temp engine paint that has more red but seemed too red.
