Odorless Glazing Compound
 
Having just glassed and sanded my Spifire fuse, I am now ready to fill the low sopts with glazing compound. I was going to use Evercoat, but it smells to high heaven[:@]Does anyone kow of a similar material that is odorless?

Thanx, Mark

Hi!

Jaka, it doesn't look like you are using that on a fiberglass surface. Can you use it on a fiberglass surface?

"Where did you come up with the brown Micro balloons?"

I have a two container "kit" of some sort, that has white micro baloons in the resin container, and brown micro baloons in the hardener container. Mixes up to look just like that. I still have the containers, but no manufacturers name on it.

The brown micro-balloons are phenolic. They are available from many fiberglass suppliers and are much easier to sand than the white glass ones. They are also a little cheaper. I find the color makes it easier to see where the pinholes are, and when you have sanded enough.
