JWThe additional work on the cockpit panels really makes it go 3D. Also love the technique to bring out the rivers, but I'm not sure I trust myself with mineral spirits on a fresh paint job.

MathieuHi JW, thanks for your nice comment.
As for the mineral spirit, over enamel I would not dare this, but over lacquer it does really act like a softener. Doesnt disolve the paint (like when you spread panel liner) but makes it easier to rub and scratch.

MathieuThanks for the word Alan 🙂
Indeed, I didnt realized how scarce they had become... I was wise buying them when they were released.
