ElFlumpo Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hi all, Just a quick one, ive tried a few searches but had no luck. Im currently finishing off the revell hudson, and whilst i ensured all the were flush with the airframe when they went in, thet were a fight fit and it seems as things have relaxed some have sunk a bit. My question is, can i use pva or thinned pva over the top of these windows to bring them flush again? Ive checked the brand i have dries clear but wondered if there were any horror stories or any better ideas? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Do you have any Clearfix? A layer of that will do, as will PVA. Just remember - gravity is your friend. Turn the model so the treated window is facing downwards. You should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenshirt Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I find PVA needs to fully cure before you try to smooth it with wet/dry. Otherwise it comes off as a goo. For that reason I prefer a clear acrylic like Gators Grip. I believe it may be the same thing as ClearFix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
