: I tried cling wrap once and it adhered to the epoxy. I ended up
: having to sand it off in places.

It's a funny thing -- I've had 100% excellent luck with Saran Wrap releasing cleanly and readily, and I've used quite a bit of it; but I know others personally who had your luck -- after I had recommended it some cases.

Peel ply is just the thing for patching, and for smaller sized layups that are mostly flat, but it isn't anything I'd even think about for building a boat or board. I have not yet had any meaningful exposure to vacuum bagging.
