Title: Wood Filler.
Post by: Marsh on November 29, 2008, 11:59:26 AM
Hi All,
Can you help please. Wood filler, what do you use for Balsa? I am in the UK so some makes might not be over here!

Hi Marsh,
I'm also still one of the few using Balsa. I've been using a product called "Sanding Sealer" by the firm "SIG" It seems to work pretty well but, as its comprised of "Dope", you have to use a respirator and employ it in a well ventilated space. I use at least five coats - sanding in between. As it's transparent the grain shows through even though it's sealed.

Hopefully Barry (Balsabasher) will add some info as he's in the UK also.
