: Bill,
: I received my glass from CLC. After the 2nd coat, the finish is
: smooth to the touch...but the "pattern" of weave
: clearly shows thru. It's not white ...or gray...so I'm pretty
: sure I have the glass thoroughly coated without any dry spots.
: Guess I just wasn't expecting to see the weave pattern AT ALL.
: Just want to know if Seeing The Weave a little is the standard
: look?
: MORE concerned about overlapping. When I do the deck and overlap
: onto the hull...worried about leaving a pretty discernible line
: where the deck glass overlaps the hull glass. Guess I can sand
: with around 80 grit to get it smooth to touch ...before I
: varnish....right?

No expert here, but it sounds like you need to let the second coat cure and sand a little not into the glass but just enough to level the epoxy then put on a final coat. Do you have Nick's book? He has a very good illustration of what needs to be done here. Hope this helps. Joe
