using West Systems 410 Microlight Fairing Filler
I've been using West Systems 410 Microlight Faring Filler and getting good results. I followed the directions and mixed a peanut butter consistency blend. After sanding with 220 grit sandpaper I've noticed I still have a few small depressions and a couple of shallow scratches. My question for anyone who has used the 410: Can I mix a thinner batch to fill in these minor flaws or do I have to stay with the peanut buttere mix? I wrote West Systems but have not as yet received a reply.
Thanks so much!

Make a thinner batch, more like ketchup. It will still easily sand. Also, 410 needs to coated with neat epoxy lest you get some "shadows" under the paint.
