[QUOTE="johnsattuk, post: 348135, member: 183150"] Araldite, filler and similar are purely cosmetic in action, the lead will be a bit awkward to stick to his ali. dish. :confused: With a bit of care and persistance the ali. dish can be planished out very successfully, being ali it will be a bit thicker than a steel one and will accept some careful sanding. If lightly sanded with a shaped block any bumps/holes show up immediately, light planishing of the bumps from the appropriate side, a bit more light sanding to see what has moved where, repeat as required and bob's your uncle. :-righton I think it is very easy to worry about minor imperfections which would have an effect that would be very difficult to measure. :D [/QUOTE]
