Wickedfluxx Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 What's the best way to repair a scratch/cut on your ABS armor? I made a slip with my X-Acto blade while finishing up my belt and thought I would reach out before trying anything.
lonewolf Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 If it is just a fine scratch you can use a wee bit of wet and dry sandpaper to sand it out,then some cutting compound and a good polish. Some abs has a top layer and the colour shade can be different but SC seems to be fine, if it is a deep cut, I would glue another piece of abs behind the cut to stop it getting any worse. Things are never as bad as they seem, good luck crazy knife guy.
Prophet106 Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Yes i would say some very fine sandpaper to take the edges off the cut then maybe a little filler. Also i hear toothpaste is a good fine polishing abrasive Hell, leave it like it is ! Scouts are meant to look a bit roughed up ! If people ask tell them an ewok got a little too close
Arch27 Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Hell, leave it like it is ! Scouts are meant to look a bit roughed up ! If people ask tell them an ewok got a little too close I agree! My knee plates are all scuffed up from kneeling on pavement next to little kids for pics. I don't really care because people kind of expect a scout to have some wear and tear on their gear. I even accentuated those with some grime weathering.
