Filling the Imperfections

This is when you may be sitting back after attaching the inner dome to the outer dome, and start getting upset because it still has little gaps and imperfections all over. DON'T WORRY!!!!
Some people use silcone, I prefer drywall compound, not only because I had it on hand and didn't have to make yet another trip to the store, but also because it dries fast, sands easy, and cleans up quick.

Use your finger and just push the compound into every crack or seperation that you see. I also used this around the bottom where the dome meets the tray. I also prefer the kind that starts off pink and turns white when dry. This helps you see where you have filled, and what needs to be filled. There is also no mistaking when it's ready to be sanded. Just be patient, remember you want this to look good.
