I didn't mean using nails...thats not what the topics about. The topic is about getting the holes left by, nails, wires and staples to swell closed to hide them. i plan to try his heat n moisture methode after I remove the wires on my next Stitch n Glue.

: S&G needs the flexibility of being able to loosen the stitches, tighten them
: up again until the alignment is right. So using nails for S&G is a bad
: idea. It is different with strippers where the shape is defined by many
: stations. For S&G it is defined by the panels shapes and tensile strength
: - so you really need the flexibility provided by stitching, not nailing.
