I have the earlier iteration cloths Karl. I’m sure these sponges will make it easier to get a consistent finish. The only advantage the cloths have is that they are colour coded to match the polishes.
Latest Acquisitions (2023)

The Tamiya cloths are 3 times the price of these too. Had both in my basket for a while
Must admit, after I bought mine I thought “I could do this with close weave handkerchiefs” LOL.
My modest haul from the Hinckley show . Despite telling myself I was only going to buy supplies as I have more than enough kits to be going on with , I managed to go twenty yards before I bought this
its the old Heller kit but its a really nice one and with the benefit of Airfix decals ( heller decals are usually a bit dodgy) , bargain at £3!
Also got some brass tubing and fine paintbrushes and just on the way out at the end of the day got this bargain for £15
The Tamiya zero is an older tooling but still a nice kit and came with the SBS resin cockpit , eduard pe fret , brass machine guns and resin wheels ! I’m a bit confused though ( i know , it doesnt take much !) , the resin wheels are much smaller in diameter than the kit ones , in fact they look TOO small so these might be going on ebay , possibly with the resin cockpit too.

So you've named your spray booth......:thinking:
Heard of cars, planes, ships, tanks, trains and a whole raft of other things getting names..... But NEVER a spray booth......:thinking::thinking::thinking:
Where's Matron when you need her....:tongue-out3:
It sucks like a sucky thing! lol
Better that the Danish version of a spray booth. "Sprøjtemalings udsugnings kabine"
And there have been comments about the unintelligibility of my course material....... How wrong they were!! :smiling5:
He doesn't need Matron Andrew....He needs to stay out of the greenhouse!!!...
A deflatable Linda Lovelace eh……..better than an inflatable one I suppose…..
I've tried several methods for gluing clear parts,and not been 100% satisfied with the results.My Blenheim's Cockpit canopy comes in two halves,so a quality join is important.
I saw this in an email from John last week,so thought I'd give it a go....
Excellent, fast delivery as always....
.... We'll see how it performs.

One of my favourite brushes is a pro arte 202 that I got in a mixed pack somewhere. I've bought all sorts of new ones but tend to pick that up for most things!
