Tip: |
Auto parts stores sell bondo spreaders made of a slippery plastic that doesn't stick (much) to modeling filler putty (Squadron, Testors, etc.). They can be cut down in width fairly easily and make great spreaders to apply thin layers of putty over seams, etc. so that they can be filed/sanded more quickly. |
