Hiya Kevin, I have caught up now, you are doing a lovely job - you saved that sanding issue really well, and your paintwork looks proper loverly, what really stands out to me is the genuine scale correct-ness the canons and ditance behind for running in/out and the over all beam of the ship - just looks so right. Oh and loving the tiles. OC.

Nice to see you Lou mate. OC. -
Bit of progress on this folks - I got hold of a tin of microwave safe enamel paint from a microwave repair shop, its supposed to be the exact same type of paint they spray the inside of microwaves. I turmed it off found a good place to work on it, then i made sure both areas to be painted where clean and any loose fragments cleaned away, then using a small brush I started to put some paint layers down, drying them in between with a hairdryer, I put about Five layers down untill all rust dents and marks where covered. I then turned the microwave over and did the same to the other damaged area. It was put in place and with the door left open - was left over night before testing it. Hopefully its saved our microwave and our health, as I am sure radiowaves bouncing off rust areas can not be safe with microwaved food. OC.

Thank you Mark, was just looking for some reassurance so I can also tell the admiral as she has been a bit worried also. OC.

Do you guys think it is safe to use till I can get the stuff to treat the rust and paint over those areas if the food is covered inside the micro. OC.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
