Lexington Av Local Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share #26 Posted February 8, 2011 How do these cars look after they are cleaned; especially the entire-side jobs? Well, spray paint comes off the trains pretty easy. I recall someone saying that the trains are coated in something that makes them easy to wash. But after the train is washed it's squeaky clean. But the adhesive and acid that is being used a lot on the exterior of the train has to be scratched off (I think) so the train will have nasty smudges on them.

VIP Posted February 8, 2011 Share #27 Posted February 8, 2011 If there's a will, there's a way... imo the 160s would look better with graffiti on them instead of what they're doing now to them; they look even more hideous with the different shades of gray now and its just soo unsightly..keep the damn graffiti its a free paint job for the trains dammit lol How do upload pics on this forum plz inbox me the steps, I have pics of 9848-9852 and some other R160s that were tagged up and repainted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
