[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 25565, member: 8947"] Forgot to answer your question about the bedding compound. What do you mean by synthetic? If this is the tupperwear injection molded stock, you are going to have problems. Clean agressively with brake cleaner to remove mold release. Drill holes and scratch up the surface very rough. You can use a knife and "cut" the surface. You want as much area for the bedding to grab onto as possible. In general, epoxy (what bedding compounds are made from) will not stick to this material so you need to use mechanical adhesion. If this is a "fiberglass" product, then any bedding compound will work. I use the epoxy steel from Devcon, and Lepages. It comes in a two part syringe for easy mixing. Usually sold in any hardward store. Use a good mold release like PVA - available at any plastic shop. Procedure is the same as wood. Just check it from time to time to make sure that it isn't lifting. Jerry [/QUOTE]
