Revan91[TK] Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 Hello everyone, I continue mounting my stormtrooper first order, I still have the thighs and a tibia before doing the strapping.I hope a validation for the episode 8 I have a problem with the fixation of the two boxes on the thigh, The boxes do not fit with the hard plastic glue that I usually use, I try to repair putty, no résult, May be an ABS / acetone mixture ? résin ? I can do a painting of the thigh after the gluing. Thank you in advance for your help, and apologies for my English Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted January 24, 2017 Report Posted January 24, 2017 I glued in place then used automotive bondo (filler), sanded then primer. Quote
alexcaliburrito[TK] Posted January 25, 2017 Report Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) I glued by whole ABS kit with 401 loctite. That stuff is so strong it makes your eyes water, also blends plastic permanently. ---------- LOCTITE Instant Adhesive Cyanoacrylate Super Glue Edited May 20, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote
alexcaliburrito[TK] Posted January 25, 2017 Report Posted January 25, 2017 Also melt some ABS into jar with Acetone. Then paintbrush it into the seams to make seamless. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Revan91[TK] Posted January 25, 2017 Author Report Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Hi, thank you very much for your answers, I will see the two solutions, For filling putty, requires a special version or all versions of the automotive mastic can work?<br> Thank you again for your help, it's really cool Edited January 25, 2017 by Revan91 Quote
