Brush and squeegee here.

Seal coat applied at super sonic speed with brush, instantly scraped back off with squeegee, results appear disastrous. All's well that ends well, tho'......

Goo applied to f'glass similarly, most work done with squeegee. Fill coats done the same way. Light sanding occurs between practically everything I do.

My most perfect squeegee: credit cards. I got started using the fake ones that come in junk mail (ancient ancestor of spam). Have learned that bankruptcy attorneys have buckets full of deactivated CC's if you want a bunch real fast.

Boat no. 11, an Outer Island, came in at 30.5 lbs. Yeah, I'm a pretty proud papa, wanna see ten million pictures?
