Priming is always the ultimate step to see errors. :)<br /><br />Thanks! :)DC23http://dc23-mecharts.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-73066249652740914222011-07-26T09:12:06.656+08:002011-07-26T09:12:06.656+08:00Hello sir!

I'm not new to Gun Pla building but I am so very new to this level of building and I need help with sanding: how will I know if I sanded 'well enough' without having to prime to check? I use a 600 grit followed by wet 1200 grit but I can still see a faint line where the sprue nibs were. Any ideas sir?<br /><br />I gotta say, it's because of you sir my love for GunPla building has been rekindled!<br /><br />I salute to you sir! :)Eglennepnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-47369522737187718772011-01-01T13:23:04.321+08:002011-01-01T13:23:04.321+08:00Wet sand with a higher grit, maybe 1200 to 1600......Wet sand with a higher grit, maybe 1200 to 1600... then prime to check if the scratches are still visible. :)Don Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-2126442186717061712011-01-01T11:01:00.160+08:002011-01-01T11:01:00.160+08:00hi dc 23,i realised i wet sand with 1000 grid,ther...hi dc 23,i realised i wet sand with 1000 grid,there is white color scratches and when i touch the surface t can be considered smooth and when the kit is wet the white scratches is gone but when is dry it is visble especially under light,how do i solve the problemDon Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-21643780249637887962010-12-13T22:27:03.313+08:002010-12-13T22:27:03.313+08:00I had that one too... its basically unusable. :(I had that one too... its basically unusable. :(Don Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-90044494036714576842010-12-13T21:49:29.624+08:002010-12-13T21:49:29.624+08:00I have found one at ACE Makati today but it is too...I have found one at ACE Makati today but it is too rough, flaky, and smaller than what you are using DC.
