Kent, Travis: I seem to remember a post about using a squeegee to fill the weave, I have not tried it yet, but it would make sense to remove all epoxy from the top surface of the weave, while not touching that which was in the hollows. It would seem that the bristles would reach down into the weave and repeat the pattern with each successive coat? Comment? TNX, Scotty
