new_to_trials Posted May 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) polystyrene or styrafoam (sp?) are awesome model making tools... if you want a really nice finnish cover it in car bodyfiller and then spray it, thats how you make plugs for fibrelgass moulds etc! its an effort though!If you want to go down this route you have to spray the foam in two pack paint (used on exteriors of houses) as, ive forgotten the details but something in the bodyfiller will eat the foam and this works as a barrier. then sand/fill/sand/fill/sand/fill etc, filler prime x3 then paint.. you'll have an awesome (but useless) mould!the other alternative is to cad up the drawing and get the model laser cut out of foam i do no i work with this stuff everyday but thanks from the helpnumber one i get the polystyrene form my dad unit who is the owner of p3dp polystyrene company number two its not done yetMy dad webstie for all the polystyrene you can think of have a look thankssam Edited May 18, 2007 by new_to_trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
