...but I always put in some cabosil to keep the epoxy/micro balloon mixture from running
I just keep adding micro balloons until I get a consistency of thick peanut butter.
This technique has worked fine for me. Running of the mixture has never been an issue.
Is there a good reason for cabosil in this application apart from thickening?
Seems to me adding this instead of more micro balloons just increases the density of the mixture, in an application where structural strength is not particularly critical.
