I haven't used the novus yet but the tamiya is really good.  The tubes are very small though.

 

I do have plans to try different ones because the tamiya is so expensive for how little you actually get

 I understand cost being a concern. You alone know how best to allocate your resources. 

 I will most likely get some Tamiya compound.  I'm most interested in adding value to my scarce building time. Every other Tamiya product I use has added value to my modeling. Less work/better results.

I've polished 32 bodies with the Tamiya compounds. The cost at the time was $21 plus $3 shipping. So far, my cost per body has been $.75. So, yeah, it's worth every penny. And I still have enough to polish 10 or 12 more. Way less labor intensive and way better results.

Thanks again for the input.  I now feel better equipped to tackle my main building obstacle, polishing.
