Brasso shield

Post by TheBohrok »

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has tried to use brasso on the KKII shields yet. If so, how did it come out? Thanks

I'm curious about this as well.And perhaps the Armors?I've heard they don't do too well.

EDIT:Oooh..Apprentice..

I haven't done shields, but I have done the black armor. Brasso crumbles the armor because of the silvery stjuff beneath the red. I used brillo and both layers came off. The problem is that the plastic loses its shiny finish. I'll see if I can get a pic soon.

Do you need to Brasso the shields? I have two "Vladek Encounters." On the first, the design was printed on the shield. In the second, the shield was blank, and I got two decal sets with every shield. Has this happened to anyone else?

Woah, that's weird that it came with a sticker for the shield. I've bought two and both came with the design printed on the shield.
