Finger Nail Filler Question ?; It's sort off like the resin putty but you can apply it with a brush and easier to use.

I got some from my brothers girlfriend who works for a nail place. They use it to fill in nails; it's a two part systems one powder and one liguid '"it's called acrylic nail system liquid & acrylic nail sysytem powder"

Has anyone ever used this stuff and does it work well on plastic because I bought some and I don't want to use it if it will hurt the plastic and resin AFV's.

I already tested it on and old figure I painted and it worked great I was just wondering if it would work on filling gaps on AFVs and if it is better to use then the putty; it dries clear and fills like a nice size gap in a figure I used.

Have any of use have any good things to say or bad things about painting it or sanding it. Or just any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Happy Modeling

i've got quite a bit of lady friends so i guess i know a lil about this stuff, anyways, i think it would work well, if it works on a plastic figure, i'm sure it would work just the same on a plastic AFV, i have no experience with resin at all, so i'm blind there.

Honestly - don't know and I don't recall any threads regard the actual 'putty' stuff being used.

You're breaking new ground.

Should I do a news, or review or article or some thing when I get done useing it. How and what would it be under because I don't want to post some place wrong.

I have never wrote anything like that before who should I asked for help?

So I might have struck Gold maybe. It was really cheap also it was like

powder was 1/4 oz

liquid was 1/3 oz

All for $5.00

I might sell this stuff on ebay?

A review or feature would be great.

A feature would be more of a How To vs. a review which is more opinion of a given manufacturer product.

I'd recommend a how to.

They're easy enough to do, you simply write up an introduction of a sentence or three describing the back ground. Then a simple well put step by step on how you use the product. I would take pictures as you go and reference them (such a new product would lend itself to be both written and visual).

I would say that it should end up in the General Modeling area because everyone can use it from dioramas, to ships, to AC, to Armor, to figures....
I'd put that in the submission so it doesn't get lost.

If you have questions about it just ask.

I've never seen it..... sounds interesting though, and will now have to scope out the finger nail section of the local drug store..... :-) :-) :-) :-)
Finger nail section= = = women
Finger nail section = = =WOMEN...... !!!!
