Re: Prop balancing!!
Usually they don't need too much balancing but for me it's the same with wood or CF. You spray Lustercoat on the light tip. If you have to balance the hub, rough it up a little with sand paper and dab fast cure epoxy on the light side unitl is balances. Works great. You could also use thick CA on the hub but epoxy is heavier and works better.

Re: Prop balancing!!
Clearcoat on the backside of the prop works great.
