A couple months ago, information was published on how to get smooth wings. He said that you should make dry micro ( dry enough to stand up - not slump) and apply it all over to a depth of 1/8-1/4 inches and then sand it down to level, removing all of the depressions. That was well and good, except I was unable to get it to lay down. all I got was a mess. Yesterday, I found out what was left out in the information - isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). After you get that super dry micro mixed, add the alcohol slowly until you get the consistency that you need for your application (runny for thin, soupy for thicker). During the cure, the alcohol will evaporate leaving just what you want, a firm sandable micro surface that is extremely light and doesn't shrink like Bondo. Made and applied it yesterday; sanded it today - WOW!
