Microballoons

[Jch]

When the directions say"add a small amount of microballoons" to the hysol mixture before bonding dissimilar metals...how much is a small amount? Thanks for your help. jch

just enough to get it a bit thicker, to get it worked with some better, to have it stick some more. Try half a teaspoon at first, and more if you want: you'll get the hang of it, soon.
Succes.

Thank you. I'm getting ready to mount the wings, lift strut brackets, etc. exciting stuff. :)

Jch,
As will many of these things practice mixing some small batches and glue random stuff together, making nice fillets and such. When you have a feel for it apply it to your project.
