OK OK after trying many things I will ask this very well informed group.
How the heck are you guys filling in seams on aircraft wings/body and Helicopters bodys? Give me some sort of detail if you can. Let me know what you guys think.

Hey unknown,
When I assemble my a/c, I use Tenax-7R. Basically its a welding glue that has to be applied to both pieces inorder to work(it melts the plastic together).
This is also what I use to fill in any seams that the Tenax did not get the first time around.
If the seams are a bit bigger or deeper(hope not[:p]), I use Squadron Putty(whiteish in color) or Mr Putty. These both work fine but Mr Putty tends to be a stronger filler once dry.
I have also heard that you can use super glue as a filler as well. I myself had to use it once or twice so I cant really comment on that method.
Anyways the methods described above work very well for me and I feel comfortable using them.
Hope this helps ya out a bit.
Flaps up, Mike
If you use the super glue method use the thick or med. stuff. The thin type will run all over and make a mess.
thanks for the advice. I’ll keep trying until I get it right.
