Re: My 1968 Glastron GT160 rebuild......
Ok this is my first shot at PB, Im sure it wil fit the bill, but I have some questions......
4 buckets, 500 ml of resin....
I measured the chop strands and Cabosil, very much like I measure the seasonings when I smoke a brisket......started with 2 of these and added from there to get the consistency I wanted. I would guess that I ended p with a bit more that a half cup of chop per bucket
I used approx a cup and 1/3rd of cabosil to make warm/runny peanut butter like consistency for 500 ml. 20/20 hind sight, I should have used more I think.... If you havent used this before, make damn sure you use a respirator ad gloves when handling it it is a super fine dust of ground glass beads. Absolutely will get in your lungs and embed in your skin....
After I got it mixed completely, I added the catalyst.....Im positive if I had done it before mixing in the ingredients, I would have ran out of time....
Question...... when I was mixing, it seemed that after the cabosil was completely mixed in, the chop was wanting to ball up, should I have cut and shredded into finer pieces ( like maybe 1/4 in max?) it wasn't as uniformly distributed through the mix as I have seen in others pictures. When I spread it, i assisted in breaking up the larger clumps of chop and spread them all over.
More to come....
