Thread: Puma high class advice

I picked this up recently and I would like advice on how to tackle the areas around the goldwash. I usually use a dremel wheel but I think this calls for hand sanding.
What products do you recommend for a nice polish? What is the lowest grit I should go to avoid scratches?

thanks fellas

IME the Puma High Class is a very thin grind. Goldwash is very fragile also. Even a paper towel with metal polish will take it off. I'd leave well enough alone if it was mine.

I ended up masking the etch with tape cut to the right size.
Worked pretty well

Looks good, samircanada. Keep a close eye on it though as scales like that are prone to cell rot. I have one that had a few marks that cleaned up nicely and when I looked at it a few months later it was on its way. Glen was able to save it though, however the wash was beyond saving.

I didnt detect any smell from the scales, especially not that camphor smell you get when sanding celluloid (that stuff is yucky).

I will keep an eye on it though, I didnt know much about this cell rot but I sure wouldnt want to jump the gun and start doing major change untill I am sure something like that is going on.
