Spheretex

Just ran into it on an other thread some time ago.

anybody experience with this kind of material.
How to impregnate a 10mm thick layer of their spherecore SBC with hand lay-up?
what about pros and cons?
they mostly compare with balsa and not to foames?

greetings,

Here are a couple of sites I've found with pictures of building with spheretex products.
The one is the Backman 21
