Sanding the ABS print is simple and straightforward. First start with 100 - 200 grit sandpaper to remove stepping lines and then gradually increase up to 600 grit to achieve a smooth finish without sanding lines. Pro Tip: Sand in small circular movements evenly across the surface of the part.

Also consider using the Moles Saturn 1B wraps which real add detail and reduce the amount of painting. See this link: http://www.forums.rocketshoppe.com/...ead.php?t=13716

Happy build boss!

PS: Still waiting on USPS

After getting on the phone, usps will be delivering my package today, it was no error on the mailing address, it was some type of error on their end, got loaded on the wrong truck and sent to the wrong post office and then sent back to Dist. center and just set over their for a extra day before being sent to my local post office. I guess they normally do a great job handling countless packages. So should have mine today
