: I am still trying new things. If you put a small dot of Gorillia
: glue on the hole and then a piece of tape the glue expands into
: the hole and fills it all the way threw. The only problem it
: still shows guite strong when resin is applied but you should
: not get any air bubble from the hole. Steaming seams to be the
: best method so far. It does not work to well for anything other
: than very small holes. Still open for ideas. Joe
I use the wet and a heat gun to shrink the holes then I also use a water based filler but only right before I glass, after all the fairing is done. The water based filler sands very easily and that can be done by hand just before you glass.
I've been using Elmer's filler, sold by HD, the red oak color is pretty close to red cedar.
