: I went out to check on the boat this morning and all the epoxy he
: piled on, to get the weave filled, last night sagged ran and the
: thing looks like a ribbed condom. Like I seed in my original
: post finishing is the quickest way to f-up a project.

: Lesson learned (I think) keep the epoxy thin!! thin layers are
: better even it it takes 2,3, 4 or more fill coats.

: So what do I do now?
: Weight a weak for it to cure then hit it with a fairing board and
: try and “re-fair” the hull (get all the ripples out) or
: orbital sander with 80 grit sand paper and just go at it and try
: not to gouge in to the base cloth? Or is epoxy so hard I will
: need a die grinder smooth it out.

Hi Jason,
Get yourself a carbide blade scraper and use that instead of sanding, you don't get epoxy dust.
