    drill seal problem

    When I put drill seal on 3 piece rimless to seal drill holes, ir runs off and bubbles slightly on the lens edge. What can I use to smooth it down?

    When the drillseal touches the polycarbonate it starts running downwards at double speed. You have to reduce the amount you are applying.

    Do not use the dropper to spray it through the hole, just have a small drop at the end of the stick and touch the edge and that will be enough to let it run through the hole. Or you can also use a toothpick wich will apply even less.

    Maybe try a cone shaped stone or grinder on your Dremel and try to smoothen the edges of the hole.
