Magic Cream


Hey Guys!

I went gunpla shopping recently and got these, Tamiya's Polishing Compounds. I bought the at Hobby Point, located at Thiong Bahru Plaza. I got them at $6.90 each, for the coarse and fine type, and $12.90 for the finish. Why are their prices different? I have no idea. These works just like polishing metal. The came in tubes, in a cardboard box packaging. I was curious on what the results looked like so here's what happened.

I bought this car late last year when I took a break from Gundams to venture out the other Plamos. This BRZ is my 2nd car of my collection. It took me about a month or so to finish it. This kit, compared to the Gundams that I'm used to is slightly different in the building process. You have to paint it and they are not snap fit model. This kit required more work but the results are AWESOME!


I really love the engine detail. I'm so proud of my work

Overall, the build was a fun one. I enjoyed myself building the kit. I shared some pictures of it with some of my friend when one of them suggested me to polish it for the real look. So I gave it a try on the hood.


Before polish...

With some magic cream and rounds of polishing...........
*Drum roll............*




What can I say? hehehehe What do you think?
