Matador Customs Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Tried locktite putty thanks to this thread and will be using it from now on. Hardens in about ten minutes and its easy to sand what else can you Ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 My method is similar to yours, I collect the sawdust powder from my band saw, then pack it in around the weight hole and smooth it to match the belly contour then drop a couple of drops of thin CA on it and it is done. I am not a seller so if it is just a little rough, I don't mind. I have sanded it smooth but it is very hard, almost like trying to sand steel. John When I remove ballast from a lure because it's too heavy, or it's in the wrong place, I pack the hole with a piece of paper towel, push it in just past flush, add a drop of two of thin CA, and then bondo over that, to have something to shape and paint.

Great idea Mark, I will be giving that one a try. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
