: After building two S&G kayaks with 6 oz open weave, I built a Redfish Silver
: using Raka's 3.25 oz 60" wide satin cloth. I like this cloth a lot
: and will use it again. It is exceptionally tight and smooth, but being
: only 3.25 oz it's not any harder to manage than 6 oz open weave. It wets
: out fine with MAS. You can see the Silver at the link below.

Ted, did you wet out the multiple layers at one time? Did you roll your epoxy on or pour and squeegee? I have heard that technique is important with this cloth, and I was wondering if you had any unpleasant learning experiences.

I just ordered this cloth for the boat I am building, but I have only used open weave cloth in the past. I will be using RAKA resin, which is a bit thinner than System 3 but thicker than Mas.
