Hope you are able to fix it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-question-about-using-plaster-on-a-bunny#post-2875294 Thu, 07 Mar 2019 09:30:07 +0000 smuckers 2875294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, this is probably like, way off base... but could you use like, drywall plaster? Not a big bucket, but like something like:</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UY39TZ0?ascsubtag=.Njg5MTEtMA.63a0ad96-40e5-11e9-9c1e-9df7dcf1b5bb&#038;tag=rewardstyle-20" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UY39TZ0?ascsubtag=.Njg5MTEtMA.63a0ad96-40e5-11e9-9c1e-9df7dcf1b5bb&#038;tag=rewardstyle-20</a></p> <p>That could be a TOTALLY ridiculous suggestion, mind, it's just what came to mind when I was thinking about how I'd fix it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-question-about-using-plaster-on-a-bunny#post-2875255 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 20:52:31 +0000 bhbee 2875255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Elmer’s CraftBond glue maybe? I don’t know anything about sticking to plaster though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-question-about-using-plaster-on-a-bunny#post-2875254 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 20:45:15 +0000 PinkElephant 2875254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’m unsure about the plaster but, but I’d try “tacky glue” (that thick stuff that comes in a similar bottle to fabric paint) rather than Elmer’s, which is kind of runny, to fill the cracks, unless you think the plaster would not stick to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-question-about-using-plaster-on-a-bunny#post-2875251 Wed, 06 Mar 2019 20:04:35 +0000 LCTBQE 2875251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crafty bees: my husband broke an unpainted plaster rabbit sculpture that I loved, it has several major cracks running through it but is being held together by an internal piece of mesh. I want to try and fix it, but I've never used plaster before. </p> <p>Can just glue the cracks with Elmers and put fresh plaster on top of it? Would the new plaster adhere to the original sculpture? Or is it like with pottery that's been through a kiln where the new stuff wouldn't join with the old stuff? Its texture is already intentionally super rough and I'm an artist, so I *think* I could get it looking okay if I knew how to use the material. I read that Elmers was better than superglue because it seeps into plaster's cracks and bonds it better, but ?? </p> <p>TIA for any tips :heart: Here she is. </p> [attach=6423/19/pnz1nn.450x600.IMG_4493.jpg]
