Hello the Oracle, I've just attempted to surface fill my first flying surface with factory supplied Expancell and have a couple of questions. 1). How do I judge the consistency of the mix, is it too

Hi Richard, Basically if it goes on easily it is too thin. The consistancy should look like thick whipped cream but will feel a lot thicker. Make sure the surfaces are completely clean before attempt

Hi Richard, I have been fooling around with this a bit of late. I am using Expandcell mixed with Carbosil in a 4:1 ratio. For Epoxy I am using the West System resins with the pumps that screw into th

Who picked up the idea from our old friend Ron Swinden. Ron built a nice Europa Classic mono but lost his medical so sold it. The new guy was delighted with it last time I saw him. Dari? graham

No one's mentioned it yet, and I don't get commissions from PolyFiber, but their SuperFil product is great stuff. With Expancell, a laminating resin sometimes cures way too slow, clogging sandpaper.

With Expancell unless real But wait.... Not only that, but it can also be easily applied on top of itself and can also be applied on top of Smooth Prime primer. It can also be used as a general fille

Fred, Couldn't agree more about SupeFil. I have just used it on all surfaces and it's wonderful to work with. The use of a hairdryer to vary the temperature while spreading makes it so easy to obtain

Hi! All. I hesitated to reply but something different to tailplanes to talk about is a welcome releif. I'm not on commission either, I'd dump the Expandcell and get onto the Polyfibre also. It's so e

If you need to build up more than 5mm or so with Supafil go and get yourself some deck cloth glass fibre. Lay this up over the base Supafil and then continue filling. Deck cloth weights just over one

Richard, A few points. Cabosil (colloidal silica) is essential. Try this. Make up a stiff batch of Expancell, then add a little Cabosil. It will now be possible to add a lot more Ezpancell to get ba

The only problem with Superfil is that you already paid a lot of money for the Expancell that came with the kit. Did with our kit, anyway. #27 Is Superfil water based? I know Smoothprime is but I did

No, Superfil is epoxy based, you are correct, and Smoothprime is water based. It has the UV blocker in it too and is great. However it is bloody expensive. So the idea of putting on more than is nece

I agree with Fred. The Polyfibre fill does mix and cut effortlessly. this helps enormously with getting a good result because you do not hesitate to go that extra mile. It was also lightweight. I als

I would tend to agree, however, for us with the classic wings , it is not an acceptable compromise as we have to fill and sand the complete surface area of our wings too. If we did a wet mix overall,

Hi there! Your second method was about right. You need to add enough Expancell to get the density down and to have mix that is spreadable (too much Expancell and it will be too thick and 'pastey' to
