I am beginning now with some celluloid repairs, and I have an issue. In order to restore missing material, I have made a putty out of similar-color celluloid and acetone. When this cures, some very small holes appear in the repaired surface.
I understand that this "bubbling" is typical of celluloid and acetone repairs, and that replacing acetone with MEK should help. My question is about the already repaired pens. Should I try to fill those holes with more putty, or will the bubbles appear again?
