fixing cracks in resin

Tools, Techniques, and Reference Materials Techniques

I have an Aftermarket Resin kit for a project I am working on, along the seam there are some hairline cracks and I am not sure how to go about fixing cracks that small. The putty I use squadron red doesnt seem small enough to fix it

Anyone?

I use CA. Apply it to the cracks, but only let it set for a short time so it doesn’t get rock hard. Fie/sand & should be good to go.

You could also use something like Mr Surfacer or Tamiya Liquid Surface Primer. It’s a bit easier to smooth out than CA.

PS: Try thinning your Squadorn putty to a soupy consistency with liquid cement - this should also work.

All of these should work, but may require multiple applications due to possible shrinkage. CA doesn’t suffer as much from shrinkage.
