I'm working on a ML moon knight and the joint rub is kicking me in the ass. I have tried sanding the joints but when I tried posing the figure, the paint was removed. I have heard that sharpie paint pens work well on paint rub. How exactly do I use it?
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.
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

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
Please wait...
As I said, this works the best that I have found.
