LIGHT-CURED PUTTY (TAMIYA)

[fseva]

I'm still working on my AMT Camaro, and the header-to-tailpipes was fairly easy because the tailpipes had 2 pins that were supposed to line up with holes in the body - 1 connection had to be modified since the header wound up too close to the tail pipe. The problem that needed a different kind of fix was the other one - the header wound up being about an 8th of an inch from the tailpipe. I tried some Light-Cured Putty by Tamiya to fill this gap. The photo shows the cured putty between the header and the tail pipe. I was able to smooth and remove excess putty with a Q-Tip. The putty didn't start curing until I placed it close to a fluorescent desk lamp and left it there for a few minutes. Just needs some silver paint!
