the actual laminating process


here's a low quality picture of my progress......turns out I accidentally had my camera set on "macro". Regardless, after I smooth on a thin skim coat along the full length . I then use a half width roller and take my time rolling on resin over a section the width of my peel ply. Then I start rolling my glass down over the wet epoxy. I then roll another layer of epoxy over the top of the glass then cover the section with peel ply. ( running cross ways and overlapping it an inch over the last section) ........I work the whole section smooth with a rubber spreader and then I'm ready to roll back the glass a little bit and start the next section. I repeat this over and over till I fall off the end of the transom.......unfortunately, I ran out of B side so I had to stop mid stream.
