Filament Repair

Repair

CAUTION: Use only paint thinner or ethyl alcohol for cleaning. Other solvents can damage the surrounding filament.





1. Use paint thinner or ethyl alcohol to clean around the damaged section of the filament.
2. Attach tape above and below the damaged section of the filament.
3. Using a small brush or marking pen, repair the filament with silver paint or equivalent.
4. Use a blow dryer heated to 150° C {302° F} for 30 minutes or let the paint set for 24 hours at 25° C {77° F} to allow it to dry completely. Do not use the defroster until the paint is dry.
