oh well thats it for now have to go and move the model building things into the other room so i can carry on for a few hours enjoy your evening and be good
The Roket Odourless glue I mentioned in your POW thread prevents this fogging. Dipping clear parts in 'Klear' floor polish before glueing also prevents this. I've never tried to rectify a fogged plastic, but you might like to try this, which is part of the removal sequence for removing longitudinal seams on aircraft canopies.\ said:right as promised some pics of the work that i have done recently.

the radar tower still needs a bit of work but it's coming along nicely. the only problem is that the clear plastic has gone misty i got glue on it and made a serious rookie mistake and tried to sand the glue off. have any of you got any advice on getting it clear again or should i just leave them out ???
i have some clear acetate i might just cut that to size and see how it goes.
You should be able to wet and dry it up to 12000 grit although maybe 3000-6000 would do then use a suitable polish to get the ultimate shine back. Don't go to too low a grit yo start though as you will put deep scratches in. You are only trying to polish the surface. I know this from prepping fiberglass moulds.\ said:right as promised some pics of the work that i have done recently.
