Wasn't too sure where to put this question....

How many builds did you guys have under your belt, before you built your first NMF machine?

Which NMF finish is the best and easiest to use?

My first build was NMF (albeit not very good!)

There is a good article by Lampie on how to use Alclad II. I think many modellers like alclad II because of the many shades and the relative ease with which it applies.

Here is an ongoing project (experimenting with highly polished aluminium)


Good luck! // PolarBear

Hi Jan,

..the easiest to use has to be Halfords Aluminium - comes in a can, just mask and spray. I know that's not quite the answer you were looking for, but it does the job for me...
