grindking[TK] Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I have a resin bayonet clip that got an air bubble in it when it was in the mold. What can i use to fill in the hole that is now there. In the picture are the 2 bayonet clips i have. One is for me and the other is for a friend. Any advice would be awesome.

Sonnenschein Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 You can use some putty like bondo to fill the hole, then sand it flat. Some use super glue mixed with baking powder. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Model putty, bondo, milliput, or epoxy putty should do just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK_LEPER Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Auto body filler works really well, or some J&B Weld. Ideally the auto body filler would be best. You want something equally or softer than the resin. So when you sand it you sand the filler down first.

grindking[TK] Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I used Blue Magic Quiksteel epoxy putty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X[TK] Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Ah...good call. I was going to suggest resin shavings and super glue. That always works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
