i'm currently building my clear version Freedom gundam and noticed that those nip marks are really annoying esp if its on the clear parts. I even overdid myself on nipping and trimming some of the leftover sprues on the parts
Need advice on how to properly clean the nip marks without leaving much ugly scratch marks.

first off, thanks edwardgsk.. i thought i could fix tht using a P2000 abrasive but then again, i gues not

Just as what I was wondering... doesn't sanding clear parts leave damage to the parts?
hmm.. any tips for clear parts on how to uh, make it look nicer (e.g. cleaning the nip marks, etc)?

clear strike version? i thought that one is sold out?

EDITED: reason - googled & found info already on Strike Freedom Clear Ver

Im no expert but i'd say try both and see which one fits you fine a bit expensive method tho

Added on June 11, 2008, 3:57 pmactually, i've come across something similar like what you're using but it wasnt for painting if i remember correctly... it was for some other method in which i forgot. i wish i could find that link again and show you fellas.... forgot already. i thought you were doing the same thing btw. in any case, i believe every modeller has their own way of doing things so chill bro
btw, yamyinhao... your wife not angry kah that you are "abusing" her nail polish kits?

but thx for the input on nip marks. I'd like to know more efficient & inexpensive ways without having to paint the whole thing.
