: When I recieved my epoxy from Raka they included an instruction
: pamphlet on how to epoxy fiberglass the wood.
: It states that doing a precoat of epoxy on the wood then
: laying down the cloth with more resin is the correct procedure.

: Can I get comments on this??

: Julie

I have always precoated and never had any layup problems. I have read often enough that not precoating can lead to epoxy starvation and therefore, some problems with the glass lifting from the wood. It would seem to me that precoating is being "safer than sorry", especially for a newbie building a first kayak. That's my $0.02.
