I am using the inside of the skirt to learn how to do the final finish, I really don't care how the inside turns out so it has been great for learning to use these materials
I put on a second coat of straight epoxy (West Systems) after sanding off a primer layer. I used a 3" foam roller from the home store used for smooth walls. It rolled on real nice but as it dried there are tiny bubble areas, they don't look like pin holes from voids in the glass. So I am guessing that a sanded layer of primer will cover them over but thought there might be a better way to prevent them. I am not working in ideal conditions, it is winter and I can only keep my basement garage at 62, so cure time is really long, it takes the full day.
I thinned the first layer but it was too much like water, but it did make a nice smooth finish. Thank you for any pointers, I have read DanH tips and those have been a big help.
Cheers
