Default Re: Vibration use?

Technicians have been using this procedure for years and some swear by it. It didn't seem to make any difference when I tried it, but then again I don't normally find it difficult to get breaks to fill. The idea does have some merit though, so for anyone who does struggle with filling a break it is certainly worth experimenting with.

The techs that I know who use this method use the little felt bullet points that are available for Dremel drills, which is what I used as well. In fact, I experimented with a number of different felt tipped wheels and spindles as well as a few soft plastic tipped tools that I modified to fit the drill, trying to create various levels of vibration and heat. However, I must confess that I never tried a baby toy, so maybe that's the secret.
