I've just got an ultrasonic bath myself. What do you use as a cleaner, water or the dedicated solvent for the paint?

A bit of a cock up!! decided to thin the UA607 LifeColor paint and used Mr Surfacer..........WRONG ended up with a full pot of goo yes I know I should have tested it but hey! and John hasn't anymore in stock.
Apart from the fact I can't seem to find the single pot of UA607 (for less than the cost of a full set) I will have to pay £19 for a new paint set

WELL Bri cant wait to see this sub all togeather but how have you done the eletrics for the lights are they on a plug system that plugs into each seckion of the sub so you only have one main plug feed like i did on my tomcat ? or will you have several eletric feeds to each section for the lights ?

A single feed to each section all connected externally to a block connector ------> to a remote 3v power supply as it will be behind glass/Perspex and while I'm at it I'll do the same to the millennium falcon 
Had a thought, the wife said I could have this ...........Layed on its side for the U552 I might be able to make it work Its lit and mirrored at what would be the back so a nice view of both sides.
Thoughts guys?

I am seriously worried about you mate, no one but no one has a modelling room that is that clean and organised.
That was exactly what I was thinking!
I have never seen such a tidy and "clean" hobby room.
