When you make something that's too big for your printer, how do you hide the seams from bonding when aesthetics are a priority?

On a few recent prints, I’ve used a bondic pen (https://www.amazon.com/Bondic-Activated-Waterproof-Resistant-Anything/dp/B00QU5M4MG) that I had lying around for seams on resin models. I haven’t primed them yet to tell how well it works, but the glue goes in quite thin and the surface tension seems to make a clean fill.
