Re: RAKA vs MAS

In Response To: Re: RAKA and others (Chip Sandresky)

:I've used RAKA/350 and MAS on a couple of different projects...I thought the RAKA was thinner, and wet out the glass more efficiently. I'm guessing that I probably used 20% more MAS than RAKA per per unit of surface area, and that is all wasted, either as additional weight under the glass, or sanded off as dust.

Anyone else have this type of experience?
