Material: Any fiberglass tape without ridges?
By:Will N 2 Go

I want to wrap the edges of my hatches with fiberglass.
I bought some 2" tape, but as previously discussed, it has a ridge on the edges.
Is there a tape that doesn't have this ridge problem? Or should I just use 4 ounce glass and trim it before it completely sets?

Thanks,
Will
