Gunze MICRO FILLER, results?

Post by JamesB »

Hi guys!
Asking your opinion, experiences, specially the paint gurus there :D
I have read the micro filler imprimation by Gunze/Mr. Hobby is great to fill those nasty micro holes sometimes we find in resin, and no matter how you try, hey pop open again, are countless enough not to enlargen them one by one.
What's your experience on this?
THanks in advance!

Same problems here. I have used it before, but it’s the same as Tamiya imho. For resin i used flower and ca glue. Works much better and it elminates the fish eyes.
Best regards,

Think he means "flour", but best is to use sodium carbonate with superglue.

Oh, thanks, I get it.
Yes, I've read that. What's the idea? appliying the soda, then fixing with glue?

I Prefer to use the super glue first, then cover it by the sodiom carbonate. It works great for gap filling as well. Use thick superglue when the gap is large/wide.
