ScottsGT Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Working on my Fisher AD-5W. I discovered that the rear portholes do not fit the curvature of the hatch. Had to file, sand and polish to the curvature. Last wet sand was with 2000 grit. I then tried my usual polish and it still was a bit hazy. Tried toothpaste, still the same. Other than applying some Future after plane is painted, anyone got tips for polishing resin to a glossy finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob MDC Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Novus Plastic Polish, It's been around for years it was first used for repairing pin ball machines. I have used it many times to get parts for clear casting "clear" Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 It's a long transition from 2000 grit to fine polish. I would suggest finding some 4000, 6000, and 8000 grit micromesh before using a polishing compound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
