Have a small gap on some areas after joining the wing on a TT laxy tiger p51.
Would putting milled glass into the gap and adding thin ca do it or is mixing milled glass with epoxy and squirting it in with a medical syringe be better or do yo have a better solution ??
Thanks, Dennis

Since the lazy tiger is an ARF I would just put a liltte Silcon on the saddle and put wax paper over the wing and bolt it down. I have also used light-weight spackling and when it dries put some thin CA on it.

If the gap is in the wing joint where you put the two half together then just use 30 min epoxy and force it in the gaps and let dry all the time use alcohol to clean any that seeps out making a nice clean fit
