Enhancing FG Oyster Shack windows

SET UP:
2 layer paper towel squares
2 burnishing tools
1 dental tool
Glosscote Lacquer

These windows are for the Fiddlers Green Oyster Shack.

Cut extra windows from 2nd printed parts page.

Press down inside pane edges. #2
Press down panel center with large burnisher. #3 This creates a cup
to hold Glosscoat and eliminates any groves small burnish tool may
have made near panel center.

Add a drop or two of Glosscoat.#4

When dry install over original flat window on model.

Or you may wish to cut out each pane and glue to an acetate sheet. #5

Bob - that burnish and glue technique is very clever. I am going to try next when needed.

Thank you!

Micro Kristal Klear also does a nice job creating windows.
One bottle will last a very long time.
