Thank you for another usefull tip,I prefer PPP because it is water based but I never thought of using a silicon tipped sculpturing tool before. A great idea.
It's only pain, work through it.

Thanks. I just use cotton buds but I'll get myself some of those silicon tipped tools.

Milliput, a customised cocktail stick and damp brush for me. But I have seen people using these sculpting tools with Milliput and may try them out if I can grab some cheap.

PPP and a damp cotton bud for me - far far easier than sanding.
