I second that recommendation. I have Dave's set and they are great for detailing ANY nuke boat. The tips and tricks can be applied to all of your model subs.

Dave's tape can be purchased from Ray Mason Videos. The contact info is in the Subcommittee report, and I believe the web-site vendor list. Great tapes! Dave.
