Aid 4 finding flaws *BEFORE* priming

Hi there.

I just thought that I'd share an old technique used by machinists and wood workers to find flaws in their work prior to painting it. It's really simple but surprisingly effective at finding extremely tiny flaws. You close your eyes and then lightly run the tips of your fingers over the work. That's it. Give it a try and feel just how much you actually can feel.

Cheers from Peter
 
With some wood working in my past I can vouch for this technique. It does work. Not so well in 1/72 scale but for larger scales it's good.
