This week I hope to mix up some fillet material to fill the gap between the perimeter of the transom boards and the boat hull. In my ultimate wisdom, or lack of experience (choose one), we ordered some stuff I thought would be good for mixing a putty-like fillet material. No no no... I didn't get cabosil, although I probably should have.
My new question in the transom replacement thread is this...
Will I have any luck mixing 1/32" Milled Fiber with epoxy resin to be used as a fillet?
Here is a short description of what I'm referring to. From our friends at US Composites (http://www.uscomposites.com/fillers.html):
1/32" Milled Fiber
Milled fiberglass powder added to epoxies and polyesters to increase strength of putty and add surface toughness/hardness.
I will do a test run, but I thought I would ask the masters...
