Material: fill coats

I am wondering if adding a little cabosil to the epoxy on the fill coats would make the job fill out quicker and stronger. I know they use it on some clear finishes to prevent runing. I know it would have to be limited to not ruin the clearity. I am not sure if it would mess up the clearity when sanded for the varnish. Does anyone have any thoughts on this. Thanks Joe
