Use on airplane canopy fairing ...
13 years ago
I used this to achieve final contours on the front edge fairing of an airplane canopy. It worked VERY well ... mixes well, easy to smooth into minor surface irregularities, and sands more readily than microballoons.

Fine Light Weight Filler

Use in places you want to fair. I used this on fiberglass boats above and below the waterline. This wets out well and adheres well. It is a bit harder than 410 but spreads out to really fine edge. You can mix any of the West System fillers to get just the right mix you need any job.

Q: I am in the process of laminating 2 layers of 3mm okoume ply on the bottom of a restoration project. Can I use 407 in between the laminated layers?

A: The 407 filler is better for a fillet, i'd recommend the 403 Microfibers which are best for adhesive properties.

Q: I'm in the process of repairing and fairing blisters on my sailboat. I ground out the blisters 5 months ago and let the bottom dry out thoroughly. Today began sealing the holes with West system epoxy not realizing that I'm supposed to apply thickened filler while the epoxy is still in the __quote__gel__quote__ stage. I need to order Wet 407 or 410 then go over the holes I just sealed with the thickened mixture to fair the hull. Since by then the layer I just applied will be fully cured, do I need to grind out the blisters again of can I just re-apply epoxy the fill with thickened mixture while this application is still in the gel stage?

A: David You should consult directly with the folks at West about this. They are very helpful. My guess is if the first layer is fully cured you may be able to wash it and just lightly sand it before applying the 2nd coat. I hope that is helpful. Mark

Q: I just finished a 7 year restoration of my 79 CVX20. The bottom has a 3/16__quote__ hook. I don't want to flip it for repair. What materials should I use? About 30 years ago I repaired a lot worse hook with fiberglass matt. Surely, someone has a method that is easier than that.
