  1. Look https://www.amazon.it/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?__mk_it_IT=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Pledge+Floor+Care prices are absurd!!! There is a Tamiya Fine compound and a Finish, which do you think i should use (i suppose i don t need the coarse one)?
  2. I'm in italy. But why? The Tamiya wax is done right for this uses, isn't it?
  3. ok, thank you. I ll go buy the Tamyia polishing compound, but i can not find in my country any floor wax as you describe so i ll use the Tamiya wax. I think the fine coarse compound would be ok...
  4. well. I do not accept you use menacing words like "Tread very carefully here" or "Don't test my patience." i never used such tones with you. "Thats why I said I had to email the bigger ones which were 2Mb each. Which you got." i stopped to follow the thread before you wrote about your problem with photobucket. That said you are clearly angry for something about our private conversation. Taking a private conversation issue in a pubblic thread is not correct but since you did i'll copy the message (wich was in response to your email) that probably triggered your 'hostility' : "ok thanks. i finished the kit anyway because you haven t given any response for weeks, but i'll try maybe in the future".... uhm, wow this is really offensive! "Claiming a gy has blocked you and not responded with answers when he already gave answers in plenty of detail it being unappreciative." Yes this was the only thing that was truly unappreciative. I thought he was not following anymore my thread and that's why i quoted him 2 times but discovering that he was following my thread and not responding deliberately while i was having problems following his suggestions (which were not requested by me as my thread was for a replament part) makes me kind of unappreciative. "Mentioning you spent money on buying stuff to fix the problem and so he should provide you with more answers or its his fault you wasted money... is ungrateful." I mentioned the fact i spent money just to make him notice i was truly in need for his attention, and no, i never said that it was his fault if i wasted money. Anyway i must say that there were NO sandind films out there in the web exept the Testors which were 300 coarse fine, and what was similar to what he talked about was called "lapping films" and was quite scarce everywhere. So, no i don't think he was really detailed and accurate, not enough that i could not have any need to disturb him with further annoying questions wich he evidently considered inopportune to his person. "YOu complained about low qual scans and I said thats all photobucket would allow. To get the higher detail versions youd need to get them emialed. I did that. YOu complained." i never complained, you are crazy. "Maybe you'd rather no one bothered to respond at all?" You said i was unappreciative to any suggestion received, this is FALSE as i was unappreciative only to pingbuzz after i noticed he was following the thread ignoring my requests of help and blocked me. If i decide to help an old lady to cross the street i don t leave her in the middle of the street and run away because i already did more than what i was compelled to do, especially if i offered my help on my own initiative to her. About the rest you wrote: i tried to sand with the lapping films i bought but the internal part of the canopy is too small and too concave and there is no way to sand it properly with such films wich are anyway too stiff. Maybe the abrasive paste from tamiya is the only way to sand it.... i was able to find in a small store the tamiya wax and this already helped, but the canopy is not yet as new, unluckily. i also tried the toothpaste but obtained no results at all. Now i m tired to responde to you, writing responses to such irritable persons is difficult to me as i need to waste a lot of time to find the right words to use.
  5. Man, i never pretended you sent me anything at all but, if i remember well, you wrote you were willing to send me scans as a response to my request of help with higer resolution scans afer somebody posted a link to a web page with very low resoltution scans wich i pointed out very clearly i was not able to use to make decals. Then sending low resolution scans as the ones posted before looked at least "uncaring" by you (nzeod you said they were 300 dpi but what i downloaded was a mere 558x800 pixels image), BUT i know you probably did it without intention because you probably didn t read the previous posts and in fact i never blamed or criticized you, i only wrote "These images resolution is even lower than that posted by no3ljm. " that's all. Now, if such a response justifies in your opinion the choice of blocking any private message from a user you previously said you were willing to help, well, then we really have a totally different idea of what such words as "friendliness", "helping", and "offense" mean, and we probably live in two totally different worlds. Always i hope you understand that my mother language is not english and i m not able to write using the perfectly corrected language formulas of netiquette as you probably are used to do in the respectable anglo-saxon world. Sorry. P.S. Please illustrate how and when might i ve been "less than appreciative of ANY help offered no matter what it is" and explain clearly what do you mean for an appreciative attitude. Do notice anyway that the thread was wrote asking for a replacement part and nobody responded about it, i did appreciate the suggestions anyway, but as you are doing to me a trial i need to point it out.
  6. It seems Pengbuzz blocked private message communication from me without any previous message exchanged. This is not a way to help, giving approximative instructions without details to somebody unexperienced and that could obtain a damage from trying to follow them. In my opinion if you want to offer help to somebody do it well, otherwise don t do it at all. Thanks anyway to other guys who responded, but the issue is unfixed.
  7. Pengbuzz i'm still waiting your response after i spent money on ebay for a few lapping films.
  8. The arms defect is very serious but i can not post any more pics to show what i mean, don t know why
  9. hello. I know the shots are terrible, i actually used 3 strong sources of light but my camera doesn t capture enough light or i don t know how to use it.... in some pics i used the flash. Yes it s that Bandai kit. If you want my opinion i must say that i like the look of the kit (i prefer it to the Yamato in battroid mode) but the quality of the kit is poor and there are a few design errors despipte Bandai reproduced incredibly well some complicated mechanism like the legs transformation one. As example the arms transformation mechanism is totally wrong and forces you to dismantle the mech for opening the arm from fighter mode. Also the hips articulation is wrong and too low (almost at half thigh position), the Yamato one is more correct and best looking. i noticed the hands are to big to get inside the arm slot (look at the pics) and the hands joint broke almost immediately after beginning to moving for posing. i used a metal bar to fix the hands. The fast packs are not very solid but can be fixed quite still in the backpack only it's quite difficult to understand how to do it...
  10. Hello. Done my bandai 1/72 vf-1s with super parts, still need to fix the canopy problem (it s matted). Unluckily my camera is not the best and pics tend to hide the wheatering effects
  11. These images resolution is even lower than that posted by no3ljm.
  12. I already did it. but the material used for car lights clear plastic parts maybe is not the same then bandai model kits. i do not intend to risk. Tamiya as well produce a kind of wax for polishing use but nobody sell it in my city.
  13. I wait your response to know what to do man. i found these http://www.ebay.it/itm/231452049390?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT on ebay, are they ok? Also, i live in Europe and i can not find the products you find in the USA stores. Is any kind of floor wax ok??
  14. Found also these: http://hlj.com/product/GNZGT62 http://hlj.com/product/MNEO-7E http://hlj.com/product/MNEO-7C i don t understand if they are ok, no way i can find them in europe
  15. I can t find results as 'sanding films', are "lapping films" the same?? Are these ok ? http://www.alphaabrasives.com/hobby-abrasives.php they ask insane shipping fees, no way i can find testors film finer than 600. seems like these sanding film are unavailable everywhere
  16. i know but buying the 'fixing' materials could be more expensive than a replacement part
  17. Ok, what i need to know here is this: Is here nobody who has a replacement part to sell or not?
  18. This is not going to help me guys... i suppose i won t fix the problem
  19. i found at a local store a lights polishing product that as the seller claim makes shiny the cars lights clear plastic parts, but i didn t know if the plastic of car parts is the same as styrene
  20. Ok, if my knowledge of english is decent a "film" is something that should be attached to something else. How can a film by itself alone sand anything?? And anyway: how can i obtain just by sanding (without spraying any gloss clear) a shining gloss surface??
  21. You know the part that is matted is the internal part of the glass, so i don t know if i can sand it well.... do you have other way to help me man?
  22. Sincerely, i m not skilled enough to make battle damages effects, i d prefer printing another decal, i'm quite perfectionst...
  23. In fact i just applied 1 decal in the wrong way and i noticed it only after i spraied it with clear spray... my intention was to apply another decal like that over it so that nobody couyld see the old decal under the new... i doubt Wave would send me another decals sheet, neither HobbyLink Japan would do it as i bought it more than 2 monthes ago Yes thanks, it would be great, but i don t know what a vector trace program is... i have only a simple ink jet printer but i hope the result would be decent... what kind of decals paper do you suggest??
  24. Hi, that is not a high resolution scan, i can not create a decal from that
