[QUOTE="kai, post: 1615404, member: 98994"] I use Devcon liquid aluminum in small tubes. Then I mix in fiber glass powder to thicken and strengthen it for pillars or bedding actions. For filling in plastic stock forends, I dont add fiberglass powder... I use "micro balloons ". This is a brown material that looks like powder but its actually tiny plastic hollow balls. This thickens and lightens the epoxy compound to allow a thicker fill of things like plastic forends while minimizing the addition of weight. I also add paste color to match if any epoxy will be visible. Adding generous amounts of glass filler to epoxy will reduce shrinkage and make it stronger. [/QUOTE]
