I am struggling to finish my RV-10 canopy and doors and am up against a deadline - she is booked in for paint in 10 days.
Part of my problem is that I am in an unheated hangar in England in the Spring. Day time temperatures are around 15 (or 60 in US money) and it is generally taking 2 days for the epoxy filler to harden enough to sand.
I am making the filler using 2 part epoxy and glass balls. The epoxy/hardener ratio is 2:1. Here's my question - since this is non-structural filler, would it be acceptable to increase the ratio of hardener (say 3:2) and would that actually make it harden quicker?
