The first step is checking if the piece that you want to fix is clean so that the glue stick to it.

For example if you want to filli a gap, grab the baking soda and filli that gap, if you want you can build up layer by layer.

Then apply the super glue on top of the baking soda, you will notice that the small grains of the baking soda will soak super fast the glue and also cure making a rock solid bond.

Last step will be filing to shape, and if you whant paint also.
