laurelflying Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Hi,all,take a look at the polishing sticks below.What do you guys think? one is for basic polishing(orange stick),the other one is for fine polishing(white and green stick) look at their flexibility and pliability. choose a part at random use the orange stick to polish feel it is like Tamiya #600-800 polishing paper in a way,but more comfortable and easier when apply ,because the wider connection between the kit part and the stick makes the polishing work more efficient.Reduce about 50% of the boring polishing work time effecitvely. take a look at the dust on after-polishing-work stick magic result after wash it with water.(big suprise!)It means modelers may use the stick for more times!!!
laurelflying Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 Then I was going to use the green side of stick B The result after using green side .Then I gotta to use the white side of stick B. see the result after using white side.
laurelflying Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 chose another part.Pay attention to the seaming scar in the middle Used the already wahsed stick A again. look at the result cleaned it by my fingers After using the green side of Stick B After using the white side of Stick B Both of the Stick A and Stick B are double sides to polish
