As the title states. I was building a Cosmodrome Nike Smoke. It comes with a huge balsa nosecone. I initially coated it with Elmer's fill and finish.
I have already glued on the covers and exhaust pipe.
My problem is it seems every time I even look at it I find a dent in the balsa. I have patched it 3X so far.
Since it is covered with the F&F I don't think I can soak it with CA.
Any suggestions for making this stronger?
I found lots of posts for papering fins and several on using CA for NC, but again I question using CA with the F&F on it....
NOTE - I do have some Aeropoxy PR2032 with PH3660 hardner available that I purchased for my first fiberglassing attempt, that I have yet to do
I also have some Rocketpoxy available
Thanks
