Netheads,

I have been given some early KR Newsletters. In one Newsletter Aug 97 there is 
an article about glassing etc. This guy's suggestion was before glassing prime 
the foam. this stops the epoxy soaking into the foam. 

Make a primer of powered waterproof glue mixed with water, the type that can be 
purchased at the hardware store. Mix the glue according to instructions, then 
begin to thin with water while mixing in micro ballons.

Experiment with some scrap foam & adjust the mixture until the filler sands 
almost as easily as the foam. This seals the foam & stops the foam absorbing 
any expoxy resin, makes it lighter & you use less resin 

Has anyone else tried this & what was the results. I am interested in your 
comments.  

Robin.
