Hi all ~

I'm at the point with the Cirrus and Merganser hulls that requires applying epoxy fill coats. Since I'm going to paint both hulls white or off-white, I'm thinking of using some colloidal silica (West Systems) to slightly thicken and toughen the fill coats as well as filling the weave faster. Have any of you tried that approach? I haven't and wonder if it's a good idea...or not.
