MR mod help

[opentheblastdoors]

hey guys im in the middle of modding my eFX helmet and need some help. while taking it apart i got a small crack on the top of the front face piece. whats the best adhesive that i could use the fix this? i figured a two part epoxy but what works well with sanding and painting. another thing is what could i use to fill in some gauges in the lid? while i was removing the excess neck and brow trim pieces i went a little crazy with the dremel and got a couple gauges in it. nothing major but what do u guys think would be the best to fill them in? all responses are much appreciated!!

I like the 2 part superglues you can buy for stuff like this

 

The superglue is very runny and gets into cracks great by capillary actioin

The activator spray makes it go hard in an instant

Sands up nice too

what brands have you used and where can i get them??

and i am looking for some type of plastic filler to fill in those gauges before priming and paint

Bondo is what most people use.

I used the Squadron MMD Putty from hobby supply stores (like model train hobby supply stores... not Hobby Lobby...)

And you can get the Zap glues (if you need them) from ----

Zap will work from Tony yes

 

I use a UK based one, will have to dig out bottles from the shed
