@kingforaday8725 they are absolutely phenomenal I use them all the time and I have been building for 48 years and they are new to me as well. I use them religiously.
@kingforaday8725 getting ready to put my order in if you want to get both sets trust me there worth every penny. I would definitely get the large and small ones. www.bobshobbyshopandrc.com
I’ve used ‘glass’ files for some thirty-forty years. Great tools. And yes, I’ve ruined a few of them… once by sanding the filler before said filler was dry. Then compounding that error by letting the filler dry. BTW, I used glass files for both my plastic models, and my Balsa wood CL airplanes. Oh, and only once didI I purchase these at a ‘hobby’ shop. Ever after, I prowled the ‘beauty’ sections of department and grocery stores, along with an occasional visit to a beauty parlor… MUCH better prices, MUCH better selection,
@ernestgalvan9037 other products are nowhere near as good as ickysticky there quality is above and beyond what you would get at a nail supply. Thus for the price difference you get what you pay for.
I know how you feel about cleaning off all the edges and blemishes off the engine, when you can't even see half of it. I've just about finished a Hasegawa Jaguar XJS and I've got another one that I've just started. Both have the amazing Jaguar V12 engine which is a beast of a thing. I've spent hours cleaning off seams, filling ejector pin marks, and getting rid of every tiny little mould line, yet once it's installed in the body you can't even see 90% of the engine, but I know it's there, so I clean it all up anyway just in case you get a glimpse of it.
And that is *EXACTLY...* my mentality when I am doing my model car kits too,I cleans everything and everywhere where there is a mold line or when I put two halves parts together!!😊❤️
@Mannysscalemodeling Thank you my name is Ed Bob was my pop who I lost 3 years ago. My business is dedicated to him and he is the reason I got into models at the age of 6. I offer the best products I can and both Australian based companies are also a family business not production like the rest are. All of there products are packed fresh to order not sitting in a warehouse waiting to go out. All of us care about quality not quantity and I'm working on becoming a Gaahleri retailer as well because there are also modelers doing for modelers just like ickysticky and Outlaw along with myself.
@DayTwo-w8n The glass files last a lifetime. They are temper proof glass so they are very durable. I use mine religiously and they are phenomenal. Well worth the investment all ickysticky products are very reasonably priced and won't break the bank. There products are amazing and better than anything that is offered over in the states that's why I became the first U.S. retailer for there products and I'm proud to offer them.
@JHartModelworks The sanding sponge sets are phenomenal if you want to get anything I'm getting ready to turn my orders in go to the website and check out there products I offer.
@@BobsHobbyShopandRC..oh, you SELL that ‘IckyStiky’ stuff…. No wonder you repeated IckySticky five thousand two hundred forty-nine times…🥸 I’ll have to try me some IckySticky Stuff….
Hey I just found your channel and I live in Booneville! I never knew that there was a hobby shop in midway lol 😆 my buddy Jeff Elliott told me about your channel, so I just subbed brother ❤😊
Great video! Im currently using and loving my ickysticky quick set cement and enjoying all the ickysticky glues i got. Not im gonna get me some of those awesome files and sanding sponge! Thanks again Ed great stuff!
@scalemodeloutlaw Thank you so much I'm glad you like your products getting ready to place my order for ickysticky so let me know and once again thanks for the Shout out on your channel.
Good stuff. Well this video has the potential to cost $100.00 plus! 😂😂😂😂 I clean and organize my modeling areas constantly, when actually modeling vs RUclips dreaming.
@tonyromano6220 All of the products are worth the money and are not expensive at all. My shipment will be here the 2 week of August with customer orders alot and some stock.
My local hobby shop down here in New Zealand stocks some of the Icky Sticky products. They are definitely worth buying. The set of extra fine sanding papers is excellent. It goes from 3000 to 15000 grit. The latter is basically like a piece of paper, it is so smooth. I've used them for polishing clear polystyrene windows and they get rid of all of the fine scratches. Once finished down to 15000, I polish them with Autoglym car polish and they are clear as glass. I've also got the Icky Sticky black CA glue which is great for filling small gaps in spots that are dificult to sand if you use putty. They do a great pack of masking sheets which are nice and thin.
While definitely important to sand... I came to see what the video description calls for. Just sayin' 😑 (Actual time spent on 'sealing seams' maybe 3 minutes.)
Been in this hobby for over 50 years and never heard of glass files. Of course this means I will have to acquire some!!!

Do the glass files wear out? Being glass do they break easily?.

@paulprice1994 your welcome thank you
Nice videos. I wanted to like the glass files. I got the DSPIAE one and they make a "fingernails on nylon" noise that causes my skin to crawl.

Suggestion to poster, do videos as a series. Like - brand x, 1/25, monkey powered car part x!
@tonyromano6220 I'm trying to do that I'm new to all this video stuff.lol

While definitely important to sand... I came to see what the video description calls for. Just sayin' 😑 (Actual time spent on 'sealing seams' maybe 3 minutes.)
@dhultgren1 it's all part of sealing seams.
Bit of filler? ❤❤😂😂❤❤ as in content filler, not the seams. Next to painting cleaning up each part is key to nice plastic models.
5:41 I have learned the hard way to be cautious.
@tonyromano6220 all you need is the ickysticky extra thin cement for seams.
@@BobsHobbyShopandRC😂😂 I currently use Tamiya, however I have your shop saved for my next supply run! Good selection and nice pricing.
If they are files not sanding sticks files only work in one direction not bac k and forth.
@michaelpitcock5445 that is incorrect these are glass files and they work In both directions. These are Australian made not that Chinese garbage.
I already how too sand ...shameless plugs
@bobpratt8224 can't please everyone it's all part of sealing seams. Thanks for your input.
