I tried a new-to-me technique of physically removing the seam in my EVA foam shield, and filling it, and IT WORKED!

Steps I will be using from now on for stubborn seams:
1. Sanding overall surface
2. Remove seams
3. Polish surface with Grinding stone
4. Heat seal
5. Apply gap filla
6. Sand gap filla
7. Apply rapid fill
8. Sand rapid fill
9. Several layers of plastidip

DragonCon is swiftly approaching….. Hope this helps anyone that wants to obliterate their seams!
