Yes, or Q-tip is good also. In fact, I'm happy maskol was not removed, because masking would have to be made before to use maskol...

Thank you Sall; and sure I will take photos as closest as possible. I have to work on the machineguns; there are painted in silver and I will apply oil paint "black smoke" on them, then remove the oil paint with Q-tip. That technique gives to the weapon a realistic look...

Looking good

How do you keep you work mat so clean? or is that oine just for photos?

I can never keep mine clean

Won't be long now and we can see how the chipping comes out

If it is the same as your Fokker, it will be awesome!

Thank you Ernie!

Well, to keep my work mat clean, I put on it a simple sheet of paper... That I remove when I take some photos

I hope also that chipping will be nice. Will try that tomorrow.

I agree with Ernie.

Ah! so simple, a sheet of paper

Ok, now I feel like a dummy for not think of that
