New to Resin Parts- Ejection Seat

Hi Toadwbg, good question!

I tend to use a rasorsaw (You can get X-acto fitment), flat file or nail board (Ask the wife!), then finish up with wet 'n dry, used wet.

The important thing is to WEAR A MASK! The warnings aren't joking, and the dust from this material is awful

Dremel, cut off wheel, and a mask (The dust is UNREAL)

razer saw, #11, 600 sandpaper, 100 sandpaper, wash in warm water, paint, install

Toadwbg,
I use the fine saw that comes in the Verlinden set (Large , Medium and fine 2x). Using this style of a saw gives me a less of a chance of ruining my seat(s).Then I use the seats base(block) as a stand.
What I mean is I use a small drill bit and drill into the base and the bottom of the seat(hand drill of course). After that the base turns into a nice painting stand(means no holding of the actual seat). I dont throw the old seat bases away cause they come in handy w/ other seats. Hope this helps ya. Flaps up, Mike

Lots of great advice-thanks to all.

I will try the dremel with sanding disk. I got one in the garage. Thanks for the tip about the dust too, I got allergies, asthma and my wife's pregnant!

A razor saw gives the best control for delicate pieces, any good hobby store will stock them. Once you have sawn it off, use a full sheet of 600 sandpaper taped down on a flat surface to sand the bottom of the seat flat. It is best to use wet sanding, as the resin dust is not very good for you, and wet sanding will help reduce the amount of dust in the air.
