What would you conclude from the following;
* Float weighed something like 5 or 6 grams more than a new one of the same mfgr.
* No flaws in the float except for the mark on the bottom where it had been rubbing/banging the bottom of the float bowel
* under magnification, you could see the open cells of the foam in the rub area.

I tried to klean up the runs and such,but if it is that critical maybe just paint the whole thing with epoxy?

I suppose you could do that, but you would also add considerable weight to the float in the process. If you are careful with the JB Weld epoxy, you will add negligible weight to the float.
Quite honestly - I think that you would have the matter well in hand with just using the little brass baffles and the vent tube extensions and silicone tubing.
