Hi All, Finished last coat of epoxy on my Night Heron and it looks good.Question 1. how long should epoxy cure before the first coat
of varnish(going with Epifanes). 2. I have a burning desire to paddle this boat and would like to know if paddling for 1 or 2 days
without any varnish would have any effect on the epoxy I don't want to screw up this late.And 3. can someone tell or guide me( a real
dummy)how to send pictures from photobucket to this forum. Thanks for all your help Nick R.
