Boat Building Forum
Find advice on all aspects of building your own kayak, canoe or any lightweight boats
It's okay- that's why I love this forum. Those that disagree simply state what they think and we all share knowledge. Some of the VW forums that I have shared on have not been so friendly.
Actually I have done it both ways- precoat and no precoat. I prefer to precoat and even on some of my most careful preparations I have found glue that I didn't know was there. It also gives a nice buffer if you have to sand off the glass for any reason. I do inlays with thin shell laminates that are so thin you really can't sand them. You just have to do a really good job of cutting the recess. After I do the inlay I precoat and sand the whole thing so any tiny little imperfections are smooth before I glass.
