AK Interactive - Rubbing Stick

AK Interactive - Rubbing Stick

Set with metal handle and 3 sponges of each size (3MM and 5MM).
This metal tool with different size sponges on the ends is designed to apply or
remove weathering products with precision. Use to clean panel washes (Panel
Line Cleaner) or place decals. The slanted tip of the sponges allows you to clean
and work in hard-to-reach areas and do fine detailing. They are lint free and
reusable. Simply wash them with universal thinner when the tip gets too dirty.

How to use:
Allow your panel wash to dry first before cleaning unless you wish to stain it.

1. Moisten (without saturating) the tip with a thinner or solvent suitable for the
paint you want to work with.
2. Gently slide the tip in one direction along the surface to be cleaned or gently
wipe off excess paint/pigment.
3. Keep the tip clean to avoid smudging, unless you are looking for a lightly
abraded appearance.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the desired effect is achieved.

The foam tip may soften if you use a strong solvent, but it will not spoil and will
regain its firmness after the solvent evaporates. Foams are reusable. It is not
necessary to apply a lot of pressure to wipe off excess paint or pigment and by
taking care of the sponges they will last longer.
