So throughout the process of shaping my blank and putting in the fin boxes, i have notices that there are little pockets of air in the foam that are now half exposed. Furthermore, I didn’t realize how delicate the sahped blank is and accidentally put a couple of dings into the rails and top - nothing to crazy, but I would like to fill them in before glassing. How would y’all suggest taking care of/filling in these dings and holes. For reference, its competition light foam. Thanks in advance!
Lite weight spackle works just fine. Funny that Fast-n-final put an optic brightened in theirs. Now it’s a good match for Arctic and Millenium. Dab it with yor finger. Don’t smear it. Screen it when it’s dry(24hr). I used a heat gun last night to take out a couple of dents. Once the gun is hot it only takes a quick pass or two. Yes using an iron is an old wood worker trick.
Like you said, I doubted you until I tried it and wow, it really does work unreal. Takes the dings and scratches out and makes it look like they were never even there. Thanks for your .02. The iron is now on my go to method.
