Hi Mike and Glen'

Since you're not going to let the epoxy set up anyway, you don't really need "real" peel ply, fabric store nylon fabric will do the same thing and it's a bunch cheaper.

Nylon will conform to slight curves easily on it's own, and like glass if it's laid on a slight diagonal it'll probably cover half the boat in one layer, make it lots less tedious than using 12" widths you'd get using towels too.

Still a squeegie works fine and is a heck of alot less messy. Can't imagine trying to have either a pile of epoxy soaked shop towels or a big pile of nylon fabric soaked in epoxy in the shop. What would you do with it? Anywhere you put it, it'll bond to anything it's put in once the resin sets.
