Love the work you do!


We are doing our first sign foam sign next week, quick question for you. Is their anytime of filler you can use if while doing finish work someone dings the foam or anything? Just want to know ahead of time in case.

Jim fantastic finishes and a nice, nice design!

Thanks! this was a fun one. The finishes turned out better than I even imagined.


Zx - we use epoxy clay / putty to fill in any dings and then sand flat after it cures. I have used the stuff from Reynolds, Apoxie, and Magic Scuplt. They wall work about the same.
