: Seal coated yesterday morning glassed the hull of my Guillemot last
: night and put fill coat on this morning. I can see the edge of
: the second layer of glass (on the bow and stern areas, placed on
: top of the main layer and wet out at the same time). Do I need
: to put a second fill coat on now or will varnish magically take
: care of it? Ideas?? Thoughts?? Travis

Varnish isn't magic, it'll do basically the same thing as the epoxy does in hiding that joint but it takes a whole bunch more coats to do it.
