: The general concensis is to sand to 120 grit and stop. Stopping at 80 grit
: could leave visible scratches.
: Wet out the whole boat w/ epoxy prior to glassing. The new epoxy should blend
: in the already epoxied areas to the rest of the surface. Otherwise the
: boat could look blotchy/stained in the areas where there's already some
: epoxy cured in/on the wood surface. It only takes a couple of ounces of
: epoxy to do this and there's no effect on the yet-to-come glassing steps
: (well, you MIGHT use a tad less epoxy at that point but otherwise...).
Do you mean wet it out right before glassing, or seal it and then sand it before glassing?
