: So far I have had pretty good luck with glass and epoxy. Today was not a good
: day. The exterior seam tape is showing white flecks and the margin with
: the previously glassed deck is very noticeable. Unfortunately this is not
: noticeable until the 2nd fill coat of the seam.
: What went wrong? Should I remove the tape?
: I will try a test comparing the seam tape to strips cut off of my sheet of
: 4oz glass to see if I can replicate this problem.

GRANT,
IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE 1. AIR BUBBLES OR 2. GLASS NOT FULLY WETTED OUT
I'VE HAD GREAT SUCCESS USING A SIRINGE FILLED WITH EPOXY TO GET RID OF AIR BUBBLE. TRY THIS ON THE BUBBLES AND THE WHITE SPOTS . IT MIGHT WORK.
THE HARDEST PART WILL PROBABLY BE GETTING A SIRINGE. FIND A LOCAL JUNKY OR AS I DID, GOT THEM FROM MY DOGS VET.
GOOD LUCK - STEVE
