note: By
special agreement we are offering a 5 ounce jar of The
Treatment "Final Detail" Model Wax.
The familiar 1oz. jars were discontinued
by the manufacturer in favor of 1/3oz. single use foil packets.
The new jar is too large to include
in the polishing kit, so we reduced the price of the polishing kit and
are offering the wax separately below.
Each kit includes 6 sheets of cushioned abrasive cloths in 2400, 3200,
3600, 4000, 6000, and 8000 grits, a soft foam sanding block, a bottle of
polish, and a soft flannel polishing cloth.
( The Final Detail Model Wax is not
included in the polishing kit; it is available separately below.)
Use this polishing kit to smooth the "orange peel" surface of a
rough paint job, or put a mirror finish on good paint (see additional
note below). Works on all painted surfaces, varnished wood, and bare
plastics (even clear parts). It is also invaluable for creating varied
finishes on raw metal parts, ranging anywhere from a dull cast finish to
a chrome-like shine.
This is the polishing system I use on all of my models.
It does take some patience and time, but you will be amazed at the difference
between the "shiny"* paint job you used to be happy with and the new mirror
smooth finish achieved with this kit.
additional note: "Shiny" paint can
be achieved with or without polishing, especially if clear coated. The
shine is the result of the paint drying properly, and means the microscopic
top surface of the paint is reflecting light well. If you look at the reflections
in that shiny paint, however, you will almost always notice they are wavy
and distorted. This is because the overall surface of the paint is not
smooth. Proper body prep can help avoid this wavy surface, but all the
top automotive restoration shops sand and polish their paint after
it has dried to achieve a concours quality finish, and your models will
look best when finished this way as well.
