In Response To: Strip: Advice on glassing over the lip (Todd O)

I usually run the glass up the inside and over the lip and extend both ends (off lip and down below vertical coaming) and apply two coats of epoxy and then let harden. Once hard after several days I cut excess glass and sand smooth and then apply several more coats of epoxy. Can't see any edges of glass.
