LOL that's why you cannot fully translate your own expressions (in portuguese it doesn't sound bad :P)

Thank you for the tips! In general i dissolve the putty in thinner and apply it with a brush (something i read somewhere). But i will try your tecnique.

Soon i will start a new thread about the new project that i have in hands

Vic Balshaw I’m glad that you and your family enjoyed your vacations in Portugal. You were lucky with the weather, but in fact in Algarve the weather its good during all year (more or less 20ºC)
