: Don't know how the pros do it, but I just finished my lip on a Guillemot. It
: wasn't Nicks strip lip.... I formed one from a 1/2 x 3/4 blue styrofoam
: strip (another great suggestion he has), and hot glued it to the coaming.
: Fillets first, then I started the glass using 8" to 10" strips
: about 2" wide, overlapped to negotiate the tight curves, wrapped from
: the deck up under the lip. After that cured, I wrapped similar strips from
: the top down, around and under the lip. Sanded all the overlaps, then a
: second layer in reverse. When I glass the underside of the deck tomorrow,
: I'll wrap one more layer from underneath up the inside of the coaming and
: over the top. A bit messy, but one thing that worked was to paint on epoxy
: first, lay in the short strip so it stuck in place, and finish wetting
: out. So far it's good and solid, don't think there will be any problem.

Hi Joe,
Did you use glass tape off a roll for the coaming lip or cut your own strips ? I was hoping to use tape for the coaming lip as I find loose strands from self cut strips can get messy but the tape I have seems to use a thread one one edge that doesn't go completely transparent.
