Paint Rub questions

In your technique, what do you use to seal?

sharpie paint pens, they are amazing, they are really pricey but buy a huge lot and ur good to go. took me a while to get every color, but sand sand sand, sharpie paint pen, seal, then dry brush color (if needed), then seal usually this is better than the factory ML way of painting joints and pieces.

I need to get that. It sounds helpful.

Thanks!

HA! It worked!!
As I said, this works the best that I have found.

Yeah pictures would be nice!! I hope I see them soon

Create a photobucket account then upload the pics there and post the image code here.

I just took a pic and am now realizing I have no idea how to post pics in the forums. Any idea?

What dremel bit do I use?
Dremel makes a white plastic or maybe it's rubber flap style sanding wheel for the interchangable arbor (I think it's a 120 grit) I use this on a slow speed evenly over the joint. The great part is that if you hit the outside finished limb, it just knocks off an even bit. The boring bit that others use chews up the hinge and is hard to control. Plus it then has to be sanded after. The thing I use actually sands instead of gauges. You want to sand it down to the point where the covering part no longer contacts the hard plastic hinge or swivel part. I heavily suggest trying it. I have been doing great avoiding joint rub this way. Later

Can you post pictures so I can understand??

What dremel bit do I use? Also when I do these steps, do I do them before or after I have painted the whole figure?

Sand it as much as possible with a very small dremel bit, then paint on a about 5 thin layers of the paint, then brush on superglue or use a matte spray sealant

Seal it with what? I have not tried super glue yet.

You have too get a sharpie or bic that color and apply like paint and seal it. Have you tried super glue? There's a great tutorial on here.
