Cheers. I would recommend claying and a polish to anyone the results are great and reduses the amount of swirls. Was a bit unsure after claying but the polish brings it to life and makes all the hard work worth while.

Cheers guys!!

Thanks. Yeah seemed fine, Was my 1st time so got nothing to compare to. It did get a bit too wet on the last few panels, maybe too much lube?

Split it in to 1/3s and dropped the 1st one on the floor so that got binned. lol.

200bubs: What about the clay? Why do you think it went so soft and was sticking on the last few panels? Have you had any feedback from others that had bought it.

all good feedback, dont know why it started to stick, normally when it sticks is down to not enough lube

The clay became really sloppy and moist I thought it maybe too much lube. It was like it was absorbing moisture. Maybe my technique need refining.
