A thixotropic agent which prevents sagging or dropping of resin when applied on vertical surfaces. Also ideal to use as a thicken with Pros-aide to create a creamy formula which helps prevent any dripping.An extremely fine powder used to thicken virtually every liquid material. It is typically used to thicken resin, paint, dyes, and even water. It is great for making fillet putty, thickening epoxy for a better glue consistency.

Milled Glass Fibers can produce a high strength non-sagging structural adhesive. 3M Glass Bubbles produce an easy spreading and sanding faring compound.
Proper sequence for mixing these compounds is to first measure catalysts or hardener into resin and mix thoroughly. Next, add fiber reinforcements and mix to assure complete fiber wet out. Fillers such as 3M Bubbles follow with the fumed silica is added last. Mix well. Fumed Silica can contribute to difficulties in sanding. Where sanding will follow, use only as much fumed silica as is required to impart thixotrophy.
