In Response To: Re: Epoxy: Fill the weave or not? (srchr/gerald)

: I fill the weave. Years and years ago I didn't on a couple of boats....and
: didn't like it. Just didn't seem to weather as well over the years.

I added another thin, rolled on coat to the 4 oz. glass. It only took 4 oz. of epoxy.
I just wanted to save every once on this boat but it makes sense to protect the core. Thanks everyone for your input.
