Here's the story. i was epoxying the rear hatch lip with graphite as filler. Due to not being able to see if the cloth was wet out properly (black epoxy) the epoxy didn't reach the underside of the deck. when i pryed the hatch off (PVA) I realized what happened so I flipped the boat over and wetout the cloth from the top stuffed the hatch in a garbage bag ( the PVA was wasted) and taped it back in place. I just removed the garbage bag and the hatch because the original epoxy was hard enough to hold its shape and the 2nd coat was starting to gel. The garbage bag was reluctant to give up the epoxy though. Is it nylon that they use for peel ply?
Won't do that again. #456
