An excellent, easily sanded lightweight filler. I began using 3M Glazing putty, but it doesnt sand as well as SuperFil. Also, a very little goes a long way!

Q&A

Please note, Aircraft Spruce's personnel are not certified aircraft mechanics and can only provide general support and ideas, which should not be relied upon or implemented in lieu of consulting an A&P or other qualified technician. Aircraft Spruce assumes no responsibility or liability for any issue or problem which may arise from any repair, modification or other work done from this knowledge base.

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.
