Scuffs
Posted: July 22nd, 2014, 3:11 am
Hi everyone
Got a little query here. Sometimes next to the main chip there is a small scuff/ding in the glass where the stone has bounced after causing the main damage.
I have tried just putting a little pit filler in the ding and curing tab etc, but it still doesnt really improve the appearance.
Should I give it a quick whizz with a round bur as if I was drilling to pop a bulls eye and then fill this drill hole? Havent tried it yet...just asking. I know it seems minor but when my customer looks at the main break when repaired, I'd like to have these other scuffs gone aswell. A neat round resin-filled drill hole might look neater than just pit filling a ragged ding?
Thanks.

PS Did a free repair for a charity prize I offered a few weeks ago and the lady was so pleased at the "vanished" damage she gave me a bottle of wine!! Cant get much better than that.
Any hangover cures??????
