In the Craft Cotton Swab range there are five kinds: two with round and with three triangular shaped tips. These are industrial strength cotton swabs, and compared with those found in supermarkets, they do not fray as easily when wet or dipped in solvents, resulting in less wastage. These swabs are great for applying decals and panel lining onto model surfaces. Creating fine details and weathering on small areas such as in Waterline series models becomes a breeze. You can also use the swabs effectively for applying any of the Weathering Master Set color schemes, such as realistic rust stains, to your model.

Not Worth the Beauty Hype

These cotton balls were total duds. They were not soft at all and left my face feeling irritated and red. The only upside was that they were relatively affordable. Unfortunately, the cons far outweighed the pros in this case. I'll be sticking with my usual brand from now on.

Pros
  • Natural cotton material is easy to work with and versatile for various crafting projects.
Cons
  • The cotton material is not stretchy, which may limit its functionality for certain projects.

  • Creating fine detail and weathering in small areas like the Waterline models is a snap
Cons
  • Damaged

very handy - cotton swabs

They are very handy. The medium one is slightly smaller than your average OTC cotton swab (just a tad), small and very small are really very small. I used a medium to polish some scratches on my nut polish kitchen knife and I used a very small one to put some beeswax in the cracks between the blade and the wood handle (not epoxy) to keep water out . Square and blade rust. Very comfortable, I will probably find many uses for medium and small sizes, maybe very rarely. At these round points, the…
