Max_Dammit Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 Mine where primed gray to cover up some GS work that had been done, i thought it was release agent to but it turned out to be paint :( it was a thick filthy coat and had to soak for a while to get it off. (I used a dutch product that works wonders) Mighr want to try and scrape the bottom of the paws and see if the color changes if you scratch it.

Lord Ragnarok Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 My wolves seem to have a whole lot of the mold release agent still on them. I've done the warm soapy water with old tooth brush thing 2x. This is my first foray into resin models so I am at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions to get the stuff off? Or is it ok to leave on and go ahead with primering? Release agent will cause problems with primer and paint adhering. Rubbing alcohol is good fro breaking up resin. try it on a cooton ball and just rub with a circular motion. Wash with soapy water. Have not heard the alcohol tip. I'll have to test it out on some resin.

Taeken Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The alchohol worked nicely. Thanks for the tip. Though I did run out after 3 wolves. B) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/4/#findComment-2476425 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmurph Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Heh! No prob- it's a technique I learned from some scale modellers who used resin alot. Just get several bottles of the cheapest generic alcohol you can find. Wait, I guess I don't need to explain that part to a fellow wolf- we all know about large quantities of cheap alcohol :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/4/#findComment-2476541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taeken Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Well there is a difference between alchohol you want to drink vs utilitarian uses. hehe. Ya, heading to Target after work to grab more. Part for me, part to replace the GF's stash that I used. I am sure it will come in handy for when my FW dread gets in.

Chalx the grey Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Hey that looks awesome, very clean painting! I like the extra gear on the back of the Lord. Why storm shield instead of belt of russ? It is cheaper, and having an extra attack with the Frost Blade is a cool deal!

Karack Blackstone Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 The 3++ really can increase survivability and is the same as the Armor, thus making it easier to remember and quick to model. That's why I plan on using it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/4/#findComment-2482759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Wolf Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Hail Brothers, Recently picked up a set myself, the models are fantastic - however there does seem to be some sort of residue over the resin. Rather thick and detail killing which is a shame, i've attempted hot soapy water and had a little play with some white spirit and an old toothbrush in an attempt to scrub it off, so far the only real effective technique for removing it i've found is knife/file. Any tips as to what I may be doing wrong? Should I be soaking the model in white spirit or just dipping? I do apologise for the lack of details I can provide, this a baby step into resin for myself - i've used the Land Raider doors and Dreadnought from Forgeworld, but never from anywhere else. Any assistance people could offer would be greatly appreciated.

jmurph Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I would try rubbing alcohol or a bath of Simple Green followed by a nylon bristlebrush or toothbrush.

Grey Wolf Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Im assuming Simple Green is your standard household cleaner? Im not familiar with the brand myself, if yes, is/isn't it bleach based?
