Hi, everybody. I just had a glue-accident on my M-8 Howitser carriage. It's on a flat surface, so I think there's some rescue-possibility.
Can any of you help me out on this one?
Thanx in advance, John.
What kind of glue? If it's superglue, you may be able to pop the blob off after it cures by sliding a sharp #11 under the edge. Damage will be minimal.
Liquid? Leave it alone. Don't touch it and let it dry completely. Touch up with sandpaper in a couple days.
Tube or epoxy? Let it dry completely and sand it smooth in a couple days.
If the damage is severe, you may need to do surgery, or as Delbert suggested, cover it with stowage (as long as it's not in the way of a hatch or firing line.) If it's a flat verticle surface, such as the armored side of the carriage, you could drape a tarp or camo net over it.
Good luck.
