Salvage?

Post by Trainboy153 »

I recently got a p51 b mustang from revell in 1/72 scale. It was great until i managed to destroy all the detail on the wing flaps and one of the elevators.FAILURE. I am now wondering if and how I should salvage this kit or should i throw it away, burn it or put it in a corner where i cant see it. :pistols: :pistols: :pistols: :pistols: :pistols: :pistols: :scratch:: :scratch:: :scratch:: :scratch:: :scratch:: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

I would spray it in a sealed tub and spray it with fairy power spray oven cleaner or if you really wan't to try again brake fluid. Is this an expensive kit? If not I would keep it as a test kit and get a new one :shifty:

Put it to one side until August then bring it back to life for the "Shelf of DOOM" long term GB...
5 months to clean it back and start again....
Just an idea, you may like it again come August 1st and think "glad I saved it!"
....and you could win a prize!!! :th:
:cheers2:
