QUOTE Most of the time I like hearing about ANY way to fix plastic. There's another thread in the sandbox about sugru... We're waiting for the shipment to show up at the thread author's place so he can tell us about using it. It looks like it will be fun to try out as well. On the BS and SG idea: Does it cure to hardened state, or a soft state? someone mentioned dash repair with it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Have you ever tried Micro Balloons?
micro balloons link I used to use this stuff back in the day fixing RC helicopter canopies and RC airplane fuselages. It is mainly used with epoxy, since it is coarser than baking soda, but is pretty handy stuff. Sands down to a very smooth finish. |

Used to fill my solid wings with them to sand out blemishes, but i used it with white glue usually, the epoxy or CA with them was to hard to sand around the balsa. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) this may have something to do with your method. i have always finger trowelled the baking soda into the crack and "soaked" this with very thin supe glue. i know others who swear by the use of the more viscous stuff and adding the baking soda after. since i ve never tried the latter.... |
