Hi Jake, I was so excited when I found out there'll be new HP sets! I LOVE Harry Potter! Can I ask if Lego plans on asking rights to make HP merchandise like you do with Bionicle & Star Wars, etc. Like the pens, keychains, sticker books, backpacks, (...)

I'd recommend Nevr-Dull because Brasso is too abrasive. Nevr-Dull will leave the glossy finish of new bricks and remove paint quite quickly. It's great for removing paint from prepainted pieces, so fresh paint like yours should be even easier. Dave (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)
