I will use a small file, small dremel bit or a piece og 220 grit wet and dry sandpaper. It keeps me from taking too much material ( head , face, neck , shoulder , chest ) at one time. If I use prepainted figures the paint has to be removed to ensure good adhesion with the glue.
Great points I will use these next time. Thanks!
