Great idea, must try!

Thanks for the tip Dave. I also use some different colored liquid that's made to mix with epoxy. It's easy to use and works great.   https://www.texasknife.com/vcom/index.php?cPath=41_261

Great use of filler! I use. Glue and dust filler on every build. I like Durham’s water putty too. It’s a fine powdered filler that dries very white and fills in one application. It’s very cheap too.
