Default Re: Hacker GP42 and AL42 restoration help

With patience these (pre-treated) holes can be filled. If you use a hard soap like Imperial Leather (which comes in 2 colour shades) slightly soften it in warm water and then just rub this over the affected area. Any surplus can be skimmed off using the edge of a Stanley knife blade. It will then harden. All this may sound a bit fastidious I know, but it really does improve the appearence.
