filling in seams?

[netjunkie9]

I know there has to be a seam but I'd like to minimize the appearance. Has anyone ever heard of running a very thin bead of white sealant (silicone or some other flexible, white sealant) down the seam of the glued side? I have fx armor and the asymmetry of the seams on the duplicate calves especially bothers me.

 

Thanks,

Brandon

I've used caulk to fill a gap. Just make sure you sand and paint when it drys

Apoxie Sculpt. It is awesome and works great. It is a 2 part material and hardens like stone but is very sandable. I love it

That stuff looks great. I assume you just go over that with some acrylic gloss or something.

 

I tried something called Kwik Seal high gloss white and it's way too soft - peels off easy with a fingernail.

Depending on the seam I use either DAP white paintable caulk, or Apoxie Skulpt.

Yep/..Just try to get something that matches your ABS or just repaint your whole set up...But it works great

Polyseamseal Ultra Gloss White Caulk. You don't even have to paint it.

Hi Mike.

 

I used white silcone sealant. No painting required and flexible.
