Hi I started the plaining of my Guillemot and have noticed that suface is something like that of a ripple chip what I'am woundering is when I sand with the fairing sander will this take the high spots off. Also I need ideas for a good gap filler I milled my own strips and am finding that do to poor fitted strips as I plain gaps are appearing. Lepage has a natural coloured wood filler that they say can be mixed with a latex stain to match the colour of the wood better. Any and all thoughts welcome THANK YOU J.D.
