ok i feel a bit thick asking here

go on http://www.detailmaster.com/ then braided line , its listing sizes like 0.25" and 0.45" for hoses on 1/25 cars ...so a 1/25 model would need hoses around 1-2mm or so

how do i convert to mm , is 0.45" almost half an inch so 12mm , that sounds way to big for any use on a model ? or have i got it all wrong lol

I think you have misread the page, the sizes are 0.025" and 0.045". As a guide, 0.040" ( or 40 Thou ) is almost exactly 1mm
