is there a product that does this....flowing gap filler

[steveo3002]

looking for something that fills small gaps and flows nicley

is there anything other than superglue i can use

[perdu]

Have you tried Tippex?

it fills quite well, sands smooth and "might" (bets being hedged here) flow if you help it with Tippex Thinners

I say might because I haven't tried to "flow" it myself

I have used Squadron Putty ( I use white these days but green is smilar) thinned with liquid poly cement, it flows fairly well and dries reasonably quickly.

And there is stuff called Mr Modeller which needs painting on and flows a bit. I have some. I have tried to flow it and did see a demo of it being put on cracks around seam lines and then wiped off with a thinners soaked rag, which pretty well did what you are asking BUT it never seems to flow and wipe for me and even used from the pot it doesn't seem to fill seams very nicely.

I understanbd the thinners the guy doing the demo was using was IPA but I don't have any luck with it, I worry about splashing thinners of any kind over my models too and am using superglue almost exclusively these days, when I need it thicker I add talcum powder to the cyano with a cocktail stick to bulk it out.

Hope this gives you some idea and I'm sure the others will have other ideas to try

Future can dry reasonably hard - certainly good enough for paint, is pretty much self levelling and dries smooth.

What about heating and stretching a length of sprue (by heating it), placing it into the gap and then brushing liquid poly cement onto it?

Mr.Surfacer 1200 is what I use.

Try mixing some talcum power with superglue.

In the boating world there is 'Captain Tolley's Creeping Crack Cure' - runs in, sets and makes waterproof.

Looks like I meant to write Mr Surfacer :

I have some called 500(when I bought it). I can't make out anything it says on its Japanese Jar

I like the "look" of that Liquid Green Stuff, I'll be 'avin' some of that myself.
