If you have wrinkles that pop up from glass that won't lay flat, you
: can try going back
: and rolling it down when the resin does develope tack with a special metal
: roller ment to
: remove bubbles or you can just sand it flat.

: Rob

I've seen the roller in Nick's book. Any ideas where one might go about finding one??? If I sand the wave flat, I will probably cut through the glass. I could patch it later, but it is only cosmetic so I'm inclined to just leave it there. I would like to see the next two boats come out nice and clean. Time, Time, Time. Always need more of that stuff.
