What to use to glue the cockpit sole down?
Doing stringer work. Then will need to glue down the floor. Typically I see manufactures use a pink hard chalk like substance with a look of body so it can fill up to 3/4" gaps. Anyone know what to use?
Thanks

Ayuh,.... Sure ya can,... I make putty all the time,.....
Just add alittle ground glass, maybe some glass fiber, then thicken with cab-o-sil til it's a putty,.....
The deck, should be pretty much restin' on the stringers, Before ya glue down anything,.....
