: I spent the day glassing the hull (first timer!) of my Expedition Sport
: yesterday and clearly used way too much epoxy. There seem to be a lot of
: runs & drips.
: Am I right to sand these down ? It seems too much for a "fairing
: board" and I'm thinking that it looks like a job for a oscillating
: disk sander and 60 grit paper?
A scraper is great for removing the worst drips and sags. Sanding does not work that well as it tends to create a ring around high spots at the same time it is working on taking down the high spot. A scraper can be used to concentrate on the high spots. The go over the whole thing with your long board and oscillating
sander.
