Don C 24-Jun-19 13:02 Thanks. Working hard to get it smooth. How thick is Gesso supposed to be? Mine's so thick I can't get the brush marks out. David Duckett 24-Jun-19 13:41 Heavier sandpaper...I don't use gesso often on models because of the brush stroke thing. It's probably best to thin it a bit for use on balsa. I did use it on the external tanks for the F-100 but I also added two applications of filler afterwards. This method does produce a smooth finish but it is also fairly soft and prone to dents Don C 25-Jun-19 10:35 Thanks, DD. This picture shows filler and sandable primer. I think that was Poppy's method and I'll stick with it. Lots of dust. Please sign in to comment on this image.
