Micro-Sol vs Solva Set
Posted by MikeS71 on Monday, August 24, 2009 12:00 AM

Till now I have only used Micro-Sol, my question regards Solvaset, is it a better product?  I find that sometimes I have to make 3-4 applications of Micro-Sol to get those tougher panels to sit right...  would solvaSet do a better job?  Benefits/Drawbacks of each?

 

Any help/Advice is appreciated!

I simply use white vinegar(gotta thank Hans von Hammer) for the fantastic tip!!Thumbs Up [tup] It's works just as good as any product you buy in the store, plus it's cheap.

Yup, undiluted..  Gotta give credit to the old-school model railroaders for that though... They were using vinegar before there were any commercial solvents..
