coolbreeze Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Back in July, I saw a post where someone used some milky looking bondo or something after glassing. I'm finally going to try my own project but can't find that post anywhere. If someone can help me out here I will really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

in4no Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Thanks fellaz, I'm going to try that out. I use the following mixes to finish off a job: 50/50 resin and body filler with hardener's for both 2nd last application. fills in almost 90% of pin-holies and small dents. Sand upto 220 grit. If you're going to cover in texture paint or vinyl this is usually enough. (if yuo still have alarge number of pin holes you can use again) 70/30 resin and body filler with hardener's for both last application. It's very runny and basically just use a adrop cloth and gently pour it over your piece. this can be sanded upto 400grit and a must if you want a great paint-finished surface. I've never had to use glazing or spot putty with this method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is called Thixotropic powder (Aerosil-Cabosil). You use it to thicken resin for overhead use or no sag use. On small projects, like kick panels, you can use it to strengthen the inside of the pod for strength. In those videos, he used in primarily as a strengthening agent for the inside of sub boxes. Not good. It can be used in conjunction with mat, but not alone. It is still a brittle mix. At least a few layers of mat are required on the box for strength.

EpicenterDesigns Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 This "milk" as you called it is commonly known as a Milkshake. My use of it back in the day was a 60/40 mix (resin/bodyfiller) and I only used the MEKP for the amount of resin used. While it is good to fill in pinholes and self level, it can be a bitch to sand. Think about it, it has cured resin in it. Everyone has their methods, but using a good bodyfiller like Rage, Rage Gold or Rage Extreme, you can sand with almost no pinholes and then use a high build primer like Slick Sand or Feather Fill and you will end up with an easy to sand out finish faster and probally cheaper in the long run without the wasted time sanding the hardend milkshake mixture.

Every chance I get I use the milk shake, after the body filler stage, and I do it opposite, about 60/40 body filler/resin, and its just perfect on sanding. I mean, I never wait like a day to sand, but about 30min after hard, so about 45min after application I have no sweet builds to show me using it, but it has worked best for me that way, and easy to sand also, just perfect to spread using nitril gloves I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
