Here is a photo of the polyethylene block that I use as a dam on the front
of the key to do a Acryli-key repair. I tape it on with the small bevel
under the overhang and against the key front to make a little extra support
for the repair.

Also a photo of the super glue I use with the powder and the foam nail emery
board that came with the kit. It is flatter and bigger than the usual emery
boards. Finish with White Diamond metal polish for a nice smooth finish.
That makes the repair disappear.

Any chance you could send a photo of the polyethylene block you are using?
