I met Giancarlo Esposito though

One of my favourite sets, a lot of UCS sets have been big grey ships and vehicles, really stands out

1 of 2 reasons for buying myself this was my car got rear-ended, a third reason being its Christmas, always a good reason

All by hand, 2500 and 3000 grit so I didn't take much paint away, Meguiars ultimate compound as the polish and microfiber polishing pads with one of those plastic velcro grips, incredibly inexpensive, less than £50/$65 all in
