repainting the girls FB, having trouble finding a spot putty to use under enamel paint, my local paint shop gave me blank stares when i said the E word. Eveything i have tried has reacted.

any suggestions?

i have heard of putting talc into bog to make a softer substance suitable to use as spot putty, anyone able to verify it? and possibly rough ratios?

Thanks

PS, im so over sanding :roll:

Gareth, which paint shop have you been talking too?

Try the dudes at VG Auto Paints (Giraween) or Auto West (Penrith). They know their stuff.
