		Re: What kind of paint on Lego?
(...) I just bought some Testors enamel paint for some detailing--I'm going to Brasso off some "Sam Sinister" torsos and make more naval officers. However, I understand that water acrylic works OK too. best Lindsay (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)

		Re: Is there any way to get pre-applied graphics off of pieces without damaging them?
(...) Well, I've used said Brasso on UFO panels, and it works rather well. It leaves the pieces slightly less shiny, with a windshield-like moire pattern when held in the light (from directional strokes with the micro-abrasive), but it works very (...) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

		Re: Plain white minifig head?
(...) Don't know, but I suppose you could take a skeleton head (from say Alpha Team) and a little smudge of Brasso and clean off the paint. I believe this works. Just a thought. (22 years ago, 17-May-02, to lugnet.general)

		Re: Wash your LEGO® Geoffrey... with the SOLVOL® Geoffrey...
(...) Yes, but that's the point! (...) But it smells! And it is abrasive, too. I've used Brasso® to remove the printing from slopes (among other things)... it happily takes the texture off too. Cheers Richie (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.loc.au)

So, from from what I see in the pictures, am I correct in assuming that Droid Escape comes with one white printed half-cylinder and one light-grey unprinted half-cylinder?

		Re: My School of Design and Architecture
That's a brasso'd canopy from the UCS Tie Fighter. It looks like CRAP in the stock configuration, but when you Brasso off all the hokey looking gray printing on it, it looks really fantastic! This set was on sale at TRU a while back for $80 or (...) (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

		Re: What non-LEGO entities are lurking in your LEGO collection?

		Re: What non-LEGO entities are lurking in your LEGO collection?
I wonder if they were attempting to clean the plates with the belt-sander. Before I discovered Brasso, sanding was a desparation move for rare white pieces that were discolored or dirty. Erik Olson <olsone@spamcop.net> wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

Well, I have 64 of the white panels now (and I still have about 20 of the R2D2s & C3P0s after giving some to my daughters class). Brasso and Toothpaste and Goof-Off all took too long and left me with a headache. The hand sander with a light grit did (...) (24 years ago, 16-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)
