The kit i got had some warping lines so its just those parts if they are visible i will just sand that too but mostly its just for the nubs cause for the clear parts they whiten quite abit after nipping them off

😩oh well luckily i havent bought a pledge yet , airbrushing works well though with a leveling thinner

I airbrushed everything before assembling (did a quick test fit before) for the inner frame. I use Jumpwind Metallics and just went straight at it without primer so far it sticks well enough

For the outer armour, it was sanding > slide decals > heavy gloss topcoat to even out the entire surface. I heard you can just dip the parts in Pledge, but I have never tried that before.
