Hi,

I have glassed the hull and it looks good. I made an error by wrapping some fiberglass around the bow. It was a mistake and when I scraped it I have gotten into the glass layer. I disturbed the finish over the second layer of glass and it is white in 4 places. I am not sure how to fix it. Should I just scrape it to clean up the white as best I can, or should I sand it off (not going through the seal coat)? I see how it is just as important to know what NOT to do is just as important as knowing what to do, ha, ha.
