How do you guys deal with stickers that are not sticking welll?

Espically clear sticekrs that is slighty oversize than the actual part.

At the sametime maybe teach me how to clean stickers that was stained by panel marker on the stickey sides.

Thanks.

trim the sticker off abit before pasting and use something like a toothpick to roll over the sticker while u are sticking them to the surface.

as for removing stains from the sticker maybe u can remove using alcohol swabs or smth? but im not sure if it will affect the adhesive.

:s13: my 2nd kit. give chance. wait got time will try to redo and paint it.

the only tool i have that time was just the cutter .

since u already pasted the sticker, it will not be possible to paint anymore.
but u can still do sanding for some parts and then do a flat coat.

just be very careful then removing the pieces coz RG parts are small and can break easily

You can purchase it at C328, it is an aquarium shop located in Clementi block 328. About 5 minutes walk away from the MRT station.

This air pump will keep on pumping even when you stop using the airbrush. Will this damage the pump over time or you just switch it off and on it back when you start spraying?

i think can invest in a better cutter, can see that your cutting not clean, a good pair of cutter is very important too~
