This filler comes with a tube of catalyst like Bondo. The Bondo catalyst and Minwax catalyst are interchangeable. The only difference is that Bondo is pink and the MinWax is an ivory-bone color. The MinWax is a little more expensive, an 8 ounce can is $5.95 and the 12 ounce can is $8.95.

I use allgame or epoxy sculpt for antlers and such, but bondo for the last part I was mentioning, anchoring, ears with fiberglass, glueing forms back together etc.

Hey Guys and Gals, thanks for all the tips again. There is some really great advice on here. I appreciate it. I am back from my unsuccessful bear hunt...but it was great getting out and about, so now I will work on the antler...will post a pic when done. ;)

Cheers,

Saylean~

This is a good thread. Anyone have any new tips or techniques?  I'm trying to repair a few broken tines. I've used apoxie sculpt, for the repair. I then painted the repaired time with ivory paint and cleared over top of it with a matte sealer. I'm having trouble getting the stain to take. Also it looks pretty shiney on the repair now. Any tips would be great. I'd love to see some videos on the whole process, but don't want to spend money on a sub par one.
