: here it is just prior to final sanding which is now done. (i think)

: i plan on epoxy and glass somtime this week. the us composites guy, mark,
: said it was ok to hot coat sealer/glass/fill all about 4 hours apart. is
: this reasonable, or it is better to seal cure, glass cure, fill cure.

: or really whixh is easier/safer for a first timer.

I'd wait for the seal coat to dry before trying to lay out the fiberglass. If the fiberglass sticks to a tacky seal coat, you'll have a mess. You don't have to wait for a full cure to add fill coats.
