Half and half. I was attempting a repair but I ended up taking my bridge off to take a picture of the crack and the resin ended up coming out. May sound thoughtless on my part but I figured I'm not up to repairing a crack like that quite yet. I was also curious on whether I should spend time fixing it.
Without sounding off, cleaning the pit is a good place to start whilst inspecting the damage. A clean pit allows the resin to flow in easier. Now I am quite aware you may normally do this, but there may be some out there that do not who are reading this.
Still practicing and have done some star breaks. I see some replys saying flex the starbreak. Meaning using my probe
sort of push near the end legs. Better expalnation would be great? I did one on a friends car today and it came out
great. I was surprised... lol Anyway still in practice mode.

Thx ChipEliminator
You definitely don't want flex at end of leg. Flex with your probe as close to the injector stem as possible to start with. The further you move away from that, you'll need to be very careful.
As stated, be careful at the ends of legs. You may cause the leg to grow. As you flex near the injector seal, you may be able to watch resin flow into the leg. Hold it for up to a minute and keep an eye on it. Good luck!!!
One last question....for now... Do I try and flex from inside the car or outside? And of course as close to the Injector
as possible. Thx ChipEliminator
I prefer outside because I feel like I have more control when I'm over the repair rather than cramped inside the car looking up... But you can do either.
