I just started using CA a couple weeks ago. I have one bottle of thin CA, which, so far, I've used to stiffen the thin tips of some beveled fins on one rocket, and tried to use to fill the grain on the fins of another - went OK, but I can still see wood grain now that I've primed it.
But I'm not sure what other things thin CA is good for, and as far as medium and thick (and extra thick?), I'm not sure. I know that sometimes CA is used to tack fins in place while glue dries, but I don't know what thickness that is. And Google tells me that extra thick is for filling gaps (although I'm not sure when this is necessary, unless you accidentally get a gap somewhere you didn't want it - which I recently did).
So what are the uses of CA with regard to different thicknesses?
