I obviously did not read it right! Recent posts discussed adding talc to CA to make a filler. All I got was a toothpick permantly stuck to a white lumpy rock hard mass on my mixing tray.

My brain hurts!

I do in two ways: either i sprinkle the part to fill with talc powder and then add a drop of CA on it or the other way round, put the glue on the part to be filled and then sprinkle talc powder on it. Talc acts as an accellerator so if you try to mix it, unless you use a very long curing time CA, it's quite hard to handle...
