Is the red finishing putty a non catalyzed filler ?

Stick with two part fillers and primers. There's less of a chance you'll have problems with shrinkage and blisters later on down the road.

Great point.
Non catalyzed
I had taken that into consideration when I began. It really is being used, as intended, to just fill in the voids before I apply the carbon.

most of the spot filler has been sanded away

The structural adhesive is doing all the work. The carbon and Resin will finish it off and it will never crack again

I’ll let you know how it holds up over the next decade.

I’ll apply the last round of filler over the weekend. Shaping and carbon over the next few weeks once it warms up.

25cm I’ve snow in 24 hours lots of TV time today
