Hey gang,
I've finally gotten around to prepping my Fang Fett and TIE buckets this weekend. They both have mold seems across the top and back of the domes.
I got a tube of bondo glazing putty. The kind you don't have to mix. Here's how I applied it to the seem:
1. Smear some putty from the low side towards the high side of the seam.
2. Run my applicator length wise along the seam to remove excess putty.
3. Wait for it to harden, and sand.
I'm sanding with a medium grit sandpaper in circular motions. (I don't want to creat any flat spots.) Here's where my question comes in. Is this the right way to do it? I can tell I'm going to need to add more putty. It smoothed out in some places, but I can still feel the seam in others. How many rounds does it take???
Thanks!
