Default RE: microballoons and what?

Talk about brain fade, I used to keep and use the spot putty all the time back when I was doing auto body work. I shall get a tube of it and keep for things like this, but I do believe I will use epoxy and balloons here because I am not sure of the integrity of this joint. That cowl fits together like socks on a rooster and I am not sure exactly how much contact area there was for the CA to work. You can't see it because the lower half of the cowl has a flange running all the way around it and the top half is supposed to fit just outside that and you can't see how much is actually touching, so I think expxy and microballoons might actually hold the whole thing together better than spot putty. However, that might not be the case, so I will get a tube of putty tomorrow and have it just in case. Good call guys.
