Reviews

Ive used epoxy and micro balloons for a long time. I tried a quart of Super Fil several years ago and its so much easier to use. Stays where you put it, doesnt sag. The hardener does separate and needs to be mixed once in a while. This is my second quart that I use on model airplanes exclusively.

Used this to simulate the windshield gasket on a Stinson SR-9. Works very well and very easy to sand. Should be great on fillets. Much easier to sand and manipulate than epoxy and micro balloons. A bit hard to measure out, so using a scale would be the best way to do that. Would be nice for modelers if it were sold in smaller portions.

Q: Can you either direct me to, or provide the MSDS for this product please? Cheers, Bruce

We have added the MSDS sheet to the "Documents" tab of this web page. Please review it there.

Q: Does Super-Fil (09-28250) work well on aluminum?

Yes. It is an epoxy base filler and adheres very well to aluminum, wood, and composites.

Q: Will Superfil crack or shrink over long time? Also, what is max depth of fill?

Superfil is an epoxy base material and will not shrink or crack over time like polyester base fillers. The manufacturer does not list a max depth.

Q: Does the filler require a chemical and / or mechanical bond?

This is an epoxy base filler and adheres to many surfaces, but a slightly abraded surface is recommended for the best bond.

Q: You mentioned an abraded surface. I have a well bonded paint, is it necessary to remove the paint and abrade the aluminum or will roughing up the paint surface be sufficient?

No, it is not necessary to remove the paint. Just be aware the Super-Fil will stick to the paint, so if the paint chips off the structure, so will the Super-Fil on it.

Q: Does SuperFil work well on sheet metal?

Yes, It will work on clean metal.

Per Vendor: It can be used as filler on metal, sure, but it should be primed over to seal it.

Q: Can Super Fil be used as a structural adhesive (like regular epoxy) to bond two pieces together?

It is not normally used as an adhesive, so we have no data as to how well it will work.

Q: What is the shelf life for 09-28250 SuperFil Part A & B?

This material has a 2 year shelf life in an un-opened container.

Q: When using in locations which will ultimately be epoxy varnished and fabric covered, should the filler go over or under the varnish?

It should go underneath the varnish. The varnish should seal the superfil.

Q: What can be used to dilute the Super Fil mix so it is not so thick?

Per Poly-Fiber: We do not recommend thinning or diluting this product.
