Putty, glue paste or wood glue and lamination based on Epoxy casting resin
Making an easy to sand lightweight putty based on universal epoxy casting resin slowly combined with the white microballoons.
Universal epoxy casting resin slowly can also be mixed with various fillers to get a mass to your liking. With cotton fiber you make a strong wood glue and with Sylothix a tremendously strong glue paste for many different applications.
Universal epoxy casting resin slow can also be used for lamination. Because both Flow Resin’s fast and slow Universal epoxy casting resin is UV-stable, it can be perfectly used for laminating with carbon fiber (carbon), especially considering the beautiful appearance of the carbon.
