RE: big stik 40 arf help
6 minute epoxy will not give you enough working time.
You want 30 minute epoxy.
Mix up the epoxy FIRST, then once the mix is smooth, add a bit of alcohol or acetone.
I prefer alcohol since it will not attack covering or paint.
Mix everything until you are left with a runny syrupy mixture.
Use a brush to cover all exposed firewall wood, and anything that is left over use on exposed inner surfaces, particularly wood joints, to add a bit of strength.
As ChuckW mentioned the Stik already has fuel proofing, but a bit more will not hurt.
