I will not be coating the fairing compound with an additional layer of
unthickened epoxy resin. I will coat the fairing compound with epoxy
primer (specifically, 404/414 Epoxy Primkote that you probably have
mentioned in another post), and use it as a barrier to prevent water
from getting into the fairing compound. Therefore, I will not be using
the ScothBrite trick to minimize the chance of sanding through the thin
layer of epoxy resin. Instead, I will follow the instruction that I
have found in Interlux web site to prepare the surface.
Thanks anyway.

Better, Jay, but a lot of guys suggest picking one system and staying with
it.
(Kinda like women?)
Otherwise, you are volunteering, at you own expense!, to discover any
possible
chemical incompatabilities - short term and long.
