Strip: Fibreglass weave visible *PIC*

The Expedition Sport is slowly getting closer to completion, but after sanding, the weave of the fibreglass cloth used to join the cockpit combing to the deck is visible and doesn't disappear when wet.

Should I give it a skin coat of resin and then sand it carefully so that I don't sand into the weave, or am I stuck with this visible band of cloth?

My apologies for the 2 pevious posts with failed images.
