Never thought of it that way.... CO2 should also work then... think that's what they use in these "dust off" cans?

The bad part of this is the fact that the salespeople advised me to use nitrogen as an alternative to "extend-it"!

I have noticed that they seem to be moving away from Smooth-On products. Must try Harvey composites, the may have something.

I phoned them, but does not seem like they have something like featherlite. They do have a light weight filler that can be mixed with resin and according to them will float. The light weight filler power costs R135 a kilo. The catch.......it comes in 27.5 kg bags. Why they a price per kilo only they will know.

They did say that they will give me a sample to try. Will give feedback as soon as i have tested it.

With an SG of approximately 28 that is  a lot. That is about a cube of balloons.

I think you also cant really store it for too long because it absorbs moisture. The best bet is to mix it with resin in bult then decant into small containers for later use. You can make sure the container is air tight with no air in it.
