Two things Brian Spray your fixative Before you cut, score nd fold! And try using a simple cheap, non-scented can of hairspray as the fixative. It works for me most of the time until She discovers that I used up all the hairspray again.! And let it Dryt well. first. If occasionally the tabs dont want to glue well just scuff the surface of the tab part.

I appreciate all the responses I've had to my question. I think I realize what my problem is. Where I'm relying on somebody else buying my supplies and conserving money any place possible, I don't buy the HP new cartridges. I buy all my supplies from Amazon.com and the ink cartridges are refills where, as somebody mentioned earlier, might not be compatible with the HP photo paper Unfortunately, I do not have the financial means to try different inks and papers. I think my solution to this is to continue using the 67# plain paper and find a way to gloss-cote the cars after assembly. The aircraft and sci-fi I've built look right without any finish. I did like the solution of spraying with the artists spray. Which brand of photo-paper seems to work best? The only brand I've tried is HP but I've heard some builders recommend Canon.
