Floatant product question

Recommended Posts

I know many people use frog's fanny as a floatant on CDC and other types of material.

and at 4.99 an oz gets kind of expensive. has anyone tried using this fumed silica from

http://www.epoxyproducts.com/f_mixin.html it seems to be much cheaper i have read on

a different website http://outdoorsbest.zeroforum.com/zerothre...;postid=4141741

that this product works well and at $4.00 plus 2.75 shipping you get 1 Quart.

 

so has anyone tried this product and the results of using it

or is there a better product out there?

 

thanks

I use a product that is exactly the same as frogs fanny. Its called Feather-Dri by Bohning Company, Its used to dry the fletch feather on arrows, found at Cabelas andBass Pros and most nice archery pro shops. It weighs 9 grams and cost 7.99, this bottle is 5 times bigger than frogs fanny

the only thing that is in archery at cabela is this Powder

for 6.99 and bass pro has this Powder for 5.99 which is only 1/4 oz where still does not equate to the 1 quart at 4 bucks.

and i cant see using any paste type on CDC

 

I guess ill try it out and test it. Thanks :)
