Should spray something over it, Body Filler is Hygroscopic and will absorb water!

Wouldn't worry too much until your ready to paint. Bog battle scares rock unless your really shit at repairs

Nah

Bog will absorb moisture but then again so does primer!? On fairings not really an issue ..
Tip : Grey filler/primer over the bog then 'shadow coat' with satin black spray can .[this seals the primer and bog] and adds a touch of 'streed cred'

(ref Damo's post

)

hmmmmm maybe worth following roosters advice the other day.... just organize a bbq. ppl who can spray paint eat for free

and just get the fairings back to el natural... hmmmmm
Though i think primer/another coat will have to do for now. Thanks heaps guys!

1-3 cans JB Black / JD label = steady pool / spray gun hand
4-7 cans = more RUNS than Bradman!!!
