Are mineral spirits safe to use to clean TX armor?

[IcyTrooper[CMD-DL]]

Just make sure there are no traces of acetone in anything as that'll melt the ABS, especially as thin as the Anovos armor is. I'd test whatever mineral spirits you are going to use on a scrap and see how it reacts over about an hour period. Mineral spirits should be safe.

I personally use Turtle Wax black vehicle stuff for cleaning/shine and haven't had issues.

[IcyTrooper[CMD-DL]]

Very awesome to see!

[Tat2trooper[501st]]

Thanks @ukswrath for the belt plate removal. (I had a hard time with this on my TK kit)

[Tat2trooper[501st]]

Did 3 to 4 lightly brushed coats on the stencil. After last coat was maybe 4 hours then I slowly pulled stencil off came out perfect.

[IcyTrooper[CMD-DL]]

Yep! Those stripes are solid!

His belts are the truth.

Took a black sharpie to the stitching on my ammo pouches. Looks way better.

I try to be. 4 kids can slow you down some.

[Tat2trooper[501st]]

Added straps to the back of the pouches. I will also add a reinforced strap also just for added security.
