Vric · #1 02-09-2003, 03:09 PM

I was going to my Hobby shop yesterday to get some paint and putty.. I got Tamiya Chrome Yellow, Mica Red (as sugested by Pman) and Silver... but no Putty (but I did get a Revell Integra

i'm sick

So today I got some orange Bondo Putty (it was really cheap) so, does this thing work for scale model ? I cant get anything other than Squadron Green putty (and It totally sux can't do anything)

thanks

You didn't get stylene!!!!?!?!??! Anyways, Bondo Spot and Glazing is the stuff that I use, it works really well (for me) but everyone else says it sucks (maybe the weather?). Anyways, watch out, it melts through thin stylene real good, so test first!

Can you post pics of the tube? Both of you are talking about different kinds by the way you are describing. There is the kind that I think Vric is talking abot which his ment for small 1:1 jobs just to smooth out(more of the finishing touch) where the kinda joey is talking about is the kind that people use to fix rust spots.

here is what I get (for 3$Can) (only thing different, it's in french and english on the tube... picture show english only... same thing anyway)

If I remember correctly I read that most people just use that to "shave" things. I'm not sure how well that is for making body kits. Hopefully someone else can chime in!
