I used Gorilla glue on two small gaps I had on my Arctic Tern shear seam near the bow. I did a great job of filling the gap but some ran down the side. I was hell to get off. I used a scaper to get the bulk off and then 180 grit 1/4 sheet sander to finish the job. You could still see some of the glue streaks, however, after glassing it was invisible. It seems the glue absorbs the epoxy well.
