Well it wasnt a complete disaster but I suspect I've made it more difficult for myself in the long run. Without having someone else,s boat to practice on (volunteers?) there was just no way I could seat the needle and glass interface to inject resin under pressure. Its obvious in hindsight that some of you have done this on unpigmented hulls, but mine is painted so the bubbles don't turn clear and you can't see what is happening inside. What all this leads to is not being able to tell if the bubble is filled or not, and lots of mess. I don't think the edges of the larger bubbles filled completely, and there was no way to know that. So I'll probably have to redo the whole thing in the not too distant future.
