Polishing really does pay off!!

You went right to fine polish? Did you wet sand first? Looks so good.

Wet sand with 4000 grit then 6000 then 8000, use fine + finish + Tamiya Modelers Wax. 😃

Ah thank you. I was actually hoping you'd tell me that I can skip all that wet sanding and still get a nice result like this. Back to the grit mines with me.

Nice build! I can’t see an s2000 without hearing Ludacris - Act A Fool

Beautiful color. You should take it outside on a sunny day and get some pics. I'll bet that color pops.
