Hello All,

I was ready to buff out my KTM-9 finish today when I noticed a few small areas where either the finish sank or I just missed during the finishing/sanding phase, weird. I am thinking that I need to fill these areas in then sand etc. was wondering what to use to fill the low areas( really like 1/4" long hairline fissures/cracks)....epoxy or just more KTM-9?

Thanks,
Greg

wipe the areas with DA, allow to flash off this will soften the KTM9 in those areas. then Spray 2-3 more coat there. If they are located over large areas, as in some near the top of the back and some of them near the the opposite area then i would spray the entire back. Ifthis is the case then wipe the entire back or what ever part down with DA and allow to flash off, then spray.
