                        Can Tamiya silver be Buffed/polished

                        Help Please,

                        I was wondering whether the Tamiya silver and aluminum in spray cans can be buffed to a shine.

                        It's for a P51

                         

                        Cheers

                        Chris

                        I have never tried that.

                        Why not spray some on a scrap model or sheet of styrene and let it dry for 48 hours and then test it so see if it can be polished.
