Wondering what's the best method for fixing up a seam? I am assuming a dremel tool with a very soft tip, clean up the area and then fill in holes with extra latex.
I got a bit over zealous with the dremel and put a bit too much extra latex to help "smooth out" the seam. Now much of the texture in the area is lost from the latex filling in the wrinkles etc. Is there any way to "sculpt" back in some detail? I tried waiting for it to cure a bit but not all the way and using a sculpting tool, but it pulls out little beads of latex balls that I don't think I'll be able to get rid of. Also the semi-dried latex doesn't seem to stick too well to the original latex, when I pick at one of those balls it starts to peel away more than the ball like when it dries on the desk or brush, just peels right off. Will it solidify to the original mask a bit more after 12 hours or so?
This is my first time playing with any of this stuff, so hopefully I don't ruin the mask.
