: Try carefully sanding the strands down now before you put a second coat on.
: You don't want to sand into the good fiberglassed areas near the strands.
: Will help to blend the high spots in when you put your filler coats on.
: That's what I did anyway and seems to work nicer then waiting until all
: the epoxy is on to sand them down.
Tom What did you sand with? Something like 200 or 400 grit wet/dry?
