atomicholiday Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Came together really well. That looks great.? I have the white version of this kit. The molding is so nice, I’m debating not even painting it.
ewetwo Posted August 20, 2023 Author Posted August 20, 2023 That you all. I didn't paint it. It's the plastic color with a coat of Pledge Revive It. I just detailed it a bit with the chrome pen. I'd love to find another in a different color.
espo Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Clean looking finish and the body details are all nicely done.
ewetwo Posted August 20, 2023 Author Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Finish is Pledge Revive It on the blue plastic David. The plastic almost had a metallic flake look to it. Of course my chrome pen. ? Edited August 20, 2023 by ewetwo
slusher Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Looks sharp, David! You brush the pledge on it?
ewetwo Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 Yes I do Carl. It makes colored plastic pop! And also does hide some scratches.

Is this the Pledge Revive you used ? https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/pledge-revive-moisturizing-oil-spray-amber-and-argan-scent-275-g-0532056p.0532056.html?&&gclid=Cj0KCQjwuZGnBhD1ARIsACxbAVj1gvjsStTnukVkPfJikFvtG4dAuiUBjfaXehwR-rCRCAmhgdUgjNcaAg-1EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds#store=465 Excellent results. Now I am motivated to start mine. I've purchased quite a few kits several years before retiring hoping I would have plenty of idle time to work on them. Sadly my Dad took ill and now I find I am his primary caregiver.

It kind of crazes. Not noticeable in a wall display. But you can wash it off and reapply it. I use a makeup brush to apply it. Edited August 23, 2023 by ewetwo
Kenmojr Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 Sadly Pledge Floor Polish is no longer available in Nova Scotia.
