: All my boats are perfect......

Well then I must be a great artist! The extra effort sanding with multiple grits is looking good and I plan on glassing the deck on Saturday. Is there anything I should do to insure I have not missed a spot of glue or left a cut marks. I m wetting the surface between grits and that is the best way I have to spot poorly sanded areas.

The canoe is starting out good as well and I'm just focusing on really well aligned strips with no gaps.
