Re: WIP: Tamiya 1/20 Tyrrell Yamaha 023

Hello,

First, thank you everyone for your kind comments.

In terms of polishing, I already have the Micro Mesh polishing cloths. I have used them before but my inexperience with them ended up with me having poor results and so just omitting to polish the body work. I got the courage to use them again on the rear cowling of the Jordan 191 and the results were outstanding. I now know that I need to ensure I have a hefty amount of clear on the parts and that I need to take my time. I have also found it difficult to polish hard to reach areas but after following Captain Mark's link I have found some smaller sanding products which I am going to order in the next week or so. Thanks again for the pointer to that website... there are so many cool products to be found there.

The Hi Def SMS CF is very nice stuff. I have just received some Modellers CF from Hiroboy and that looks like a great pattern too.

Kind regards,
Bill
