Ah.......the pleasures of building a boat.
Tucked upside down inside the aft portion of the starboard hull underneath the boarding steps, I am preparing the bottom of the stairs for laminating 24 oz. triaxial glass. About the only way to bond glass to a horizontal or vertical surface is to cut a template from butcher paper, transfer the shape onto the glass with a sharpy, cut out the piece of glass fabric then use 3M 77 spray adhesive to tack the dry glass in place. Once it's in place, mix a batch of epoxy and roll it on wet, let it soak in a bit then squeegee until you're convinced that all of the air has been removed between the foam surface and the saturated glass.
