Ross - great suggestion to "Future" a scrap at the same time you do the model as I think I can screw that up also!

 

Cheers, Jake

Should be fine, but you must wait for the Future to cure completely—at least 48 hours, more if it is very humid or cool. If in doubt, coat a piece of scrap at the same time as your model. When the scrap can be fine sanded (say 800 grit) without gumming the Future can be polished. Future is about the slowest full cure acrylic I've ever encountered.

Picked up a bottle of Future at Walmart last week. Thinned with rubbing alchol and sprayed it. And WOW my figure smells better than the air fresher in my bathroom!

by the way is it ok to rub tamiya fine/ultra fine polishing compond on future?
