Clay and hairspray.... interesting....
Some sort of modeling putty would be better suited, Tamiya sells one that is commonly used and then there is miliputty.... those are designed to stick, hardening and hold up to sanding and painting.

i tried something like what you said hairspray and clay except i used playdough and poly cement and superglue
it doesnt work unfortunatley but hairspray and clay sounds good as for the putty, they have only just started stocking milliput in my lhs but i am in the UK so there you go we suck :P it is normally with painting stuff thanks michael

everyone up there is pretty much right on, but milliput is a 2 part putty, it comes with two separate pieces that mix together.
but what ever you do dont get testors contour putty! it cracks and crumbles and just plane sucks

I use testors contour putty & I have never had any problems with it. I use it on all of my projects for filling & body work & have yet too have it crack or crumble. Easy to sand & put down on plastic. But I think Tamiya millut putty would be the best thing too use though.
