Since it is darker than the white flours it should work well with the western red. Cant beat the price.

: I have used flour mixed with epoxy for filler. It lies somewhere between
: microballoons and cabosil as far as strength goes.
: When I used it as filler I mixed in some cedar dust (that I collected while
: sanding the boat) to match color of the area I was filling. It worked
: great; especially since strength in a small filled in area isn't as
: important as a fillet might be. Plus, it is much cheaper than cabosil.
: If I am working on an area that needs some strength, I mix in some cabosil
: and wood flour and wheat flour to try and match colors as much as
: possible.
: Another benefit to wheat and wood flours instead of cabosil is the flours are
: much easier to sand than cabosil.
