Epoxy Transparency Problem
I'm having trouble covering some plywood with fiberglass cloth. The problem
is that I want to be able to see the wood under the cloth, but the cloth just doesn't seem to want to get "transparent". I've covered plywood before using this method, including a wooden kayak, and it usually comes out great. I've been able to sheath the foredeck of the boat successfully, and the fiberglass "disappears" into the epoxy resin, but for some reason all of a sudden I'm having problems. It gets about 90% transparent, but stays a little milky. I've made sure that I lay the cloth onto a wet piece of plywood, and that I force more epoxy into the weave, but still it looks only partially transparent. Ideas? Thanks, Bill L. |
