IPMS19 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 - Very nice demonstration of the quality of Rub'n Buff to represent realistic bare metal surfaces - Just mind finger prints 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Model Mate Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Lovely finish! I’m a fan of rub ‘n buff too, but it rarely comes out as good as yours - a bit of handling and it starts to rub ‘n off! I usually seal it with Klear (diluted with water and a fair bit of washing up liquid to break the tension and allow it to cover properly). This does dull the metal effect a little, but at least it stops rubbing off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyW Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 A beautiful model. Landings must have been interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dull effect would be interesting for other metal finish like aircrafts who are few years old. Have a nice day Lolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mig88 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Great idea and fantastic execution!! That metallic effect is so impressive it looks like the kit is actually made from metal parts . It looks like the real thing in the photos, well done! Miguel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
