I am currently building DML's 1/16 Fallschirmjager of the SS 500th Battalion and there are gaps galore when I fit the body together. I was just wonder what products everyone uses to fill gaps and how they apply it.
Thanks!!

Hi Glenn
Depending on the size of the gap you can try
1.thick super glue
2.Twink (liquid paper corrector)
3.Super glue mixed with talcum powder
4. I've just discovered Selleys Multipurpose KNEAD IT polymer repair system
(does create some heat while curing but doesn't seen to damage plastic)

That just about does it hope these are of some help

Thank you Chris. The gaps are not too big, so maybe the thick super glue would be the way to go.
