RE: Glassing Techniques?
Hi Shaun,
I've become a firm believer in Aerospace Composites EZ Lam epoxy. 2:1 mix ratio thinned with alcohol. The directions for the product say to thin 50% but I don't use near that much. Very low viscosity to start with in my opinion. The stuff goes on great with a brush still using the playing cards to squeegie the excess out. You can get 30 min or 60 min tack time hardener - I've been using the 30 min. Plenty of time to work with and the stuff goes a long way. I used to use Z-Poxy with good results but with this epoxy the next day it has NO tackiness to it whatsoever. Dry as a bone. Has made me a much better glasser than I used to be. The Hornet wings look unbelievably smooth compared to the stabs that I did with Z-Poxy.

BTW, The Phantom kit looks great. Can't say enough what you did for me.
