I dont glass any of mine, except sometimes at the tips. I do coat them with thinned epoxy, or CPS or Rot-fix whatever I have, and varnish them well. The steel wool finish does give a nice grip, but not as nice as oil IMHO.
I dont oil the laminated ones, as Ive had trouble with poly glue delaminating on ioled paddles. You used epoxy to glue it up? How was that, in terms of ease and weight? Plain epoxy or thick laminating glue?
: I'm afraid it's going to leak! Water splashing around inside will be
: embarassing.
: I'm going to start a full size model and I will surely go with an oil (or no)
: finish on that one. This one is too floppy to leave unglassed. I may try a
: matte or steel wool'd varnish in order to improve the feel.
