Hi Michael. Thank you again for your reply. I have had some success with “pritt-stick†with paper to paper, but, when I used it for paper to cardboard kits, not as much. And as far as my back ground scenery to plywood I doubt if it would work. Best wishes Kevin
Use wallpaper paste Kevin, You can buy a small bag. Mix a SMALL amount of powder into some water so you get a VERY watery, runny solution and brush a heavy coat onto the plywood so it soaks in (front and back) and leave overnight to dry. Repeat with a slightly thicker mix and again leave untill its thoroughly dry. You can if you wish, do a third coat but two SHOULD be enough. Now mix some paste as you would if you were hanging wallpaper, coat the back of your backscene, leave to dry for 5-10 minutes and then apply another coat to the backscene and then stick it to your plywood. You can roll out any bubbles using a glass or jar on its side, carfully roll the edges of the backscene over the edges of the plywood and hold in place with clothes pegs ( preferably old weak ones) if you think the pegs are too strong and may mark the surface of the backscene paper then cut a card strip to put between the peg and the paper to spread the load and stop it marking. Check regularly for a time to make sure the paper isn't wrinkling or creasing and then leave it somewhere to dry slowly overnight. You should get a good bond to the pre primed plywood :thumbs
If your not sure you can practice with some offcuts to get your mixes right before doing the actual backscene ?
P.S glazing clips on your 2hal/ Bil ?? No idea probably Gwiwer or SRMan are your best bet on those :hmm
