Hi Paul;

You seem to be 180 degrees out of phase with conventional thinking here. If you put the smaller glass piece under the overall hull glass and got bubbles, that is what conventional wisdom says might happen at the seams.

Now you are moving to layers of 2 oz. cloth on the basis of . . . ?

I can't believe all the problems related on this board to glass wet-out, it seems pretty simple if you follow the advice of people who do it every day. I'll be glassing my deck shortly, so if I spoke out of turn you will know it soon by my silence after that event . . .

Best of luck with 2 oz. layups, I used those on my model R/C planes, Spidey
