Has anyone used this? It was recommended as a lightweight
filler for 1/2 oz glass over balsa.

Yes it works fine but is expensive. It seems to be the same as the much cheaper automotive lacquer primmers like DuPont 30S. Even smells like it. I used lacquer thinner instead of the "required" Pactra Prep Thinner. It worked fine.
