Mr. Surfacer is a filler meant for really small imperfections and gaps, like a typical seam along a fuselage joint. It's a bit easier and more effective to use in that kind of application than putty because it's a liquid and will flow to a certain degree.

Hi Ron,

Got the Mr Surfacer from www.hlj.com, about 2 bucks a bottle. The site is from Japan run by an American, and have had great service from him.

I have a number of brushes that I use for applying Mr.Surfacer, each for a different purpose. Brushing it on is the only effective way that I've found for using this stuff.

Andy. I apply it many ways, but a toothpick is probably the most common for me. I've used a brush as well. You can thin it with lacquer thinner or acetone if you want to spray it through your airbrush (but clean your airbrush before it has a chance to dry in there...)
I do all clean up with lacquer thinner.

Just received my first ever bottles of Mr. Surfacer. What is the best way to apply? What do I clean the tools with?
