Never could understand the reasoning behind using epoxy as a "primer"
coat. Horrible to fair. If any repairs did to be made, the patched
area will be a different color from the older rest of the boat.
Unless, of course, you want to strip all the epoxy off and start
again.

If you use all varnish, you have to strip the panel contigous with the
repair. If there is a color difference, this could be ameliorated with
dye or stain.

Some people just love goo, I guess.
