Apparently these are great for fixing scratches on foils. Anyone know of anywhere to buy locally? Or buy one online cheaply?

Also FYI.. if you’re looking for foil repair supplies I found Insta Cure medium-thick and graphite powder at Magic Box Hobbies in Kerrisdale. Call ahead for stock since it looks like they don’t have a lot.

I bought a used foil and it was scratched and gouged up, looked bad.

I filled scratches and gouges with autobody filler - a fast drying red paste.

With a coat of black lacquer it was durable and much improved.
