Had this set for about 6 years. Still going strong, haven't lost their grit. I used them on canopies and flatting down for decals. Chris On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.

I can also approve this mini polishing kit. The liquid polish and cloth will remove "minor" blemishes from plastic canopies and return them to a clear finish. (From my experience) Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

They are very good sets indeed. I had the set some years ago but rather than the pads mine had strips of polishing material with a foam pad you wrapped them around. Lasted for ages. Happy Modelling

I have recently bought this as well, also bought the micro mesh buds, look like cotton buds, for the hard to get at areas. They come in exactly the same coarse grades as the pads. Mark

I have been using 'Micro-mesh' for years and wouldn't be without it. Great for polishing aircraft canopies, the 12000 grit followed by a coat of 'Johnsons Klear' will leave you with a much clearer view into the cockpit than a standard kit canopy ever would even with it fully closed!
Great stuff for polishing out scratches and mould lines!!

Had mine for about 3 years and its had a hammering  its a great kit I haven't used the liquid polish very much though “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”
