Alick, Sorry you had such a tough time. Laying down the glass on the inside is for sure the most challenging part of building a stripper. I've been lucky and have only had a few places I needed to sand down and patch. Believe Mark when he says that if you are careful with your patching, it will not ...

Terry, I've seen the Elmers at Home Depot. and many hardware stores. I've used it on my two canoes. The epoxy covers right over it. I like it for two reasons: 1.
