THe only way to seal the fairing compound of a male one off is to "tight
glaze" the compound with Rojo after the hull is fair, then shoot high
build primer followed by LP.

Lots of sanding in between.

Anything less and you are kidding yourself.

Lew, that sounds like the voice of experience talking...

ROJO, AKA: RED HAND.

A 2 part epoxy from the industrial division of International Paints.

Designed to fill pock marks in steel plate after sand blasting in ship
yards.

Definitely NOT a West marine item.

There are many types of fairing compound. Some are porous and some are
not. The Bondo style are porous and need sealing. I would be quite
confident that an epoxy based fairing compound with microballoons is
not porous so the recommendation for a sealing coat does not apply to
this type.
