					<description><![CDATA[KSM Bench Standard Lacquer vs Aqueous Solutions Protecting fine moulded-in kit texture is not a matter of paint fashion. It is a matter of film build. Rivets, weld beads, rolled plate character, cast texture, bolt heads, cast numbers, and sharp styrene edges are not usually destroyed by one coat. They are buried layer by layer.
