what’s the difference between Q-cell and cab-o-sil?

what’s the difference between Q-cell and cab-o-sil? … q-cell (or microsphires) is light weight filler that is pure opaque white when done. cabosil is thickener but doesn’t expand the resin volume like q-cell so its not lightweight. Q cell has a terrible pure white look and cabosil looks foggy and muddy when done. to make something that looks more like foam color i use a mix of cabo with just a bit of q-cell th whiten it slightly. same mix if adding color to match tints. http://www.cooperfishsurfboards.com

what’s the difference between Q-cell and cab-o-sil? It is my understanding that Q-Cell is a hollow bubble. I not sure how that compares with cabosil.
