The following is a RESEND (apparently the picture attachment didn't work
....anybody that wants to see the illustration can email me for it at

-------------------
Wet-on-wet, smallest piece first, results in underlying edges being 'pressed
down' or naturally tapered while wet, and the space near the edges will
naturally fill with liquid epoxy. Since a picture is worth a thousand
words, see the attached image which shows the areas that must be filled in
order to prevent bubbles and to ensure good load transfer from panel to
panel (marked in red.) Wet-on-wet, smallest piece first, takes care of
these areas automatically. If you go largest piece first, you still have to
fair-in (that means scrape, sand, fill, sand.) along the edges ...or should
anyway. I doubt the boat will break either way (grinz.)

If you are dripping all over the place, then you aren't doing it right.
The glass is supposed to have the weave wetted out, but the weave should
still be quite visible... not dry looking, but dang close. You can apply
fill coats later, after it's cured into the boat. Believe me, the glass
has plenty of epoxy in it when it looks like this. No drips!

But dripping all over the place is part of the process???? Just try to
move all the expensive tools (planers, belt sanders, etc.) out of the
line of fire.

I don't trust myself not to drip all over the place while I
carry the pre-wetted piece to the boat.
