wrinkles
Posted by jboutin on Monday, April 25, 2005 6:13 PM
I think I may have used too much micro sol. I put it on the kit decals (hasegawa hurricane mk1) and they wrinkled up like normal but I added more to them and once they dried, they were nice and flat for the most part except they all had some wrinkles that never went away. I tried making a small slice and re-applying the micro sol to soften it and flatten out but nothing happened. Angry [:(!]

Is there anything that might work to make the wrinkles come out? I know ironing works to bringout wrinkles but that isn't really a good idea with plastic models, it gets kinda messy.Wink [;)]Big Smile [:D]

jay it may be too late (I read about your prob in the BoB GB) but reapplying the microsol over until it is flat has worked for me... sometimes it has taken 4 or 5 applications to get them flat... I let them get to the dry state and reapply, since you have future on your fuselage get it around the edges good too...
