How to Repair Glass sanded through to balsa~
I've got a Top-Flite Corsair and when I glassed it the sheeting sagged inbetween the wing ribs, as I sanded the glass down it went through to the balsa so there is balsa showing at almost every wing rib.
I know I cant primer the fuse with bare balsa showing so I used polycrylic and painted the bare wood spots to seal the showing wood. it is a water based acrylic that I have used for tons of things in the past. I figgured aout 3 coats and it would seal up the wood grain enough so I could primer it and if any grain still showed through I could get it with some glazing putty before painting.
does everyone think this was an adequate fix?
any one would have done it different?
I would not consider putting on another coat of resin as that stuff is a royal PITA to sand off.
let me know-
