In Response To: Strip: two or three fill coats (Mike Bielski)

: What is the thinking on fill coats once the epoxy is wetted out? Start with
: two and see if it fills the weave, or just add three to start?

Thats what I do. Just enough to fill the weave and sand out. More experienced on here than me, but I don't see a reason for any more than making it smooth.
