Just finishing a dred with Zip-Flex purfling and last night I bumped the body against the edge my workbench (sometimes I think I may be too clutzy for luthiery :cry:

. Managed somehow to put a dent in the Zip-Flex purfling. It's about 3/8 inch long and probably 1/32 or so deep. Have any of you had this happen? Any suggestions on fixing it? The only thing that I can think of is trying to fill the dent with CA.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Walter

Route out a section with a small inlay bit and install a new piece. If done carefully, you will never see the repair.
