[Nhcoll-l] cellulose powder for gap filler

[William Simpson]

Hi Carrie,

I recently used a filler which is produced as part of a high-end marine 
epoxy we use here.   We had an emergency crack filling repair to do for 
an elephant scapula before the specimen went on exhibit.  The product is 
WEST System Microfibers, filler 203 and we used it with B-72.

Best,

Bill
