Great video, I like how you went the extra mile and explained how you should scrape diagonally. Cheers mate.
I personally use p-tex powder, it doesn't give such a mess^^
anyone else absolutely kill their board? like wood deep scratches
Absolutely. Would ptex be enough to fix that?
@galaxial_toast5190 yes, just make sure to put a small layer of epoxy on the wood and once it dries, out ptex on it. Ptex doesn't stick that well to wood that's why you put epoxy first
Thanks
Hi, does it make a difference if your base is sintered or extruded, is the method for both the same??
what type of file?
Not accurate. Your supposed to keep the ptex stick way closer than that almost touching the board because it will keep the flame blue not orange like the video. The more blue the flame the less contaminants in the final product!
But does that only apply to the ptex that is dripping or should you stray away from having a yellow flame on the ptex stick aswell?
What about when you have a base grind on your board?
Take it to a shop that can weld in additional base material.
Wouldnt you damage your base by using a rasp/file to grind it? How do you know that you are not rasping though the wax?
You are supposed to clean your base first. Fill the gaps next then rewax.
@@Ketothev I ment the base material, not the wax* sorry
@@skahww1036 by keeping the file level?
Is p-tex the same as glue sticks?
