  1. I've heard of it, but I know LA totally awesome is safe for plastics; not sure about purple power.
  2. Right; that's why I suggested stripping it, and why I also suggested testing the stripping on sprue. I'd truly be upset with myself if something I recommended ruined a project on someone else!
  3. Sounds good.Iif you have any concerns about the process, you can always test it on a piece of sprue from that kit first.
  4. I've tried that, and it never worked well for me. I think you'd be better off priming over clean plastic than a surface like that, as the paint has a much better chance of staying on the model!
  5. If you're planning to paint that model in classic colors, I strongly recommend you strip the metallic finish off it before the attempt. L.A. Totally Awesome!! cleaner removes chrome safely and effectively; just let it soak overnight in it (available at your local Dollar Tree or dollar store).
  6. *wonders when the next sequel to Record of Lodoss War will be butchered made*
  7. They should probably do the "face" as a separate piece.
  8. Thanks MT!! That was the idea! On the note of finishes: I recently found out about a company called True North, that is making a lot of the colors Model Master used to (before Testors punked out), Here's their link: https://www.truenorthpaints.com/ AFAIK, the paints are alkyd enamels, but they have a pretty good selection. I found this site via a review linked on another forum: http://www.modelwarships.com/reviews/misc/True_North/TrueNorthPaints/TrueNorthPaints.htm (NOTE: don't click the link the review has to the site: it's an old link that bounces back to modelwarships.com. Instead, please use the link I first posted)
