Quick questions:
Is there a way to save your brushes after putting a layer of resin on the outside of your helmet? I am on layer 3 on my helmet on the outside and havenet started to resin/fiberglass the inside as suggested. Anyways my brush is like a block of, well, fiberglass. Curious if people use a new brush on every layer / have a technique of preserving the brush for multiple layers?
Next question is in regards to resin. I am on the third coat on the outside. I plan on bondoing the helmet in order to get some of the finer detail lost during resining. So my question is do I have to resin and fiberglass the inside or can i do it on the outside of the helmet?
Lastly I am doing an iron man helmet and I started resining with the mask on (So it wouldnt lose its shape resining afterwards) Anyways After the 2nd coat of resin i cut the face out and did the third layer of resin on each separately. Now after the coat has dried it still seemed to have lost shape? Is this not the right way to do it? Or will I able to fix it with some bondo along the edges and when i go back to do finer details?
Finally off topic but when putting pep together is stick glue just as viable as elmers glue?
Thanks for your time and advice towards reading this
