Greg I wouldn't have beleived it if I hadn't tried it for myself? I thought I had some pictures with me I could post of the BA DVIII I have on the contruction board now. There was a very bad warped burble on the leading edge of the top half of the wing. When mated to the bottom half it left not only a gap but a hole between the two halfs. No Problem!!!!! I cemented the halfs together and after it was dry I applied the PORC-A-FILLER with a spatula I cut from the edge of a plastic discount card. It was like applying a liquid paste. It poured right into the hole and spread over the gap with a wipe of my home made spatula. It dried within minutes. It sanded like resin. Hard to the touch but like butter to the sand paper and knife. I used a Exacto Blade to shave off the dried excess like a seam scraper. I used a finer sand paper to give it a smooth surface. Which I have to say was just like the plastics surface. The two materials plastic kit part and the finished Porc-a -Filler were indistinguishable. It didn't seem harder than the plastic part it seemed it was as hard as the part.
