Are you like me? Crying Worried about your Universe and Allience & Emipre minis slowy oxidising or disolving or what ever it is that the air is doing to them?
Well I have a solution!Drool

I've tried this on a couple of them and its working well so far! So all feel free to experiment.
Get your self some heavy lacquer spray, I used a Universal Clear Lacquer that is used for a high gloss finish on car panels, yes a CAR lacquer.OMG And a normal Clear Matt acrylic model spray.

Take your 'dusty' mini Angry, wash and clean it thoroughly. Dry it, then spray it with the heavy lacquer. Front, back, top and bottom. Allow it to thoroughly dry before you do the bottom.
When the mini is totally dry, repreat the process with the Matt acrylic spray and allow to dry.
And thats it! One, 99.9999% or as near as blasted it air tight sealed mini! No more chemical reaction with the air.

I thank you.BlooMilk

I find that boiling them works just as well.

So, do you have to boil once. Or is this a repeat process over time?

I don't know how necessary it is to actually boil them. What you want to do is remove the residue that has seeped out of the plastic and then seal the surface of the plastic so no more can seep out again.
