body putty

[1986Z28]

what kind of body putty do you guys use for smoothing lines and holes, where can i get it?

[mike@af]

Tamiya Grey Putty, or Tamiya Epoxy putty depending on the size of the job.

I use tamiya grey putty like Mike for seams and occasionally holes. But I am beggining to find out that CA cement fills holes very well and sands super easy.

[Tikiman]

I use Revell Model Filler and/or Humbrol Model Filler.

[JTRACING]

I use Squadron putty, or super glue mixed with some baking soda

[hirofkd]

If it's for a small hole or a shallow sink mark, I use super glue.

Like Tikiman, I also have a good result with Revell Model filler.

[mike@af]

Superglue does work good, the only down to it is that it can be hard to see when sanding.

thats why you should spray on a layer of primer after sanding to detect flaws

I use bondo or fiberglass resin (ok mayybe im a bit extreme lol)

Bondo's Fiber Glass resin is made for mixing into fiberglass.

You know what works great?

I use SEARCH. It works great for filling gaps very well, pretty cheap and it comes with a money back guarantee. Only problem is that it's kinda cumbersome.

heheh
