Filling the weave

I just finished the third filler coat of epoxy on the hull of my Georgian Bay. The weave texture has basically disappeared on all surfaces except for the keel near the bow and stern. The additional layer of glass on these surfaces combined with the steep dropoff has made it harder to build up this area. I don't want to incur the extra weight of another complete fill coat and was wondering if it's ok to just brush on an extra coat of resin where needed.

Thanks,
Jim
