Wet Micro - Enough microspheres for a "thick honey" mix.
Dry Micro - Enough Micro so it won't run.
Wet Flox - Thick, but pourable mixture of epoxy and flocked
cotton.
APPLY TO SURFACE:
Layup Over Foam - Brush or squeegee on a thin micro slurry layer
(thick over urethane).
Layup Over Glass - Brush on a coat of epoxy.
4. LAY ON CLOTH : Pull edges to straighten wrinkles. If working
alone on a long piece, roll the cloth then unroll it onto the
surface.
5. WET OUT : Don't slop on excess resin; bring epoxy up from below
with a vertical "stab" of the brush ("stippling") or a squeegee
action. Start in center and work out to sides. Most of the time
of a layup is spent squeeging. Stipple resin up from below or if
required, down from above. "NOT WET, NOT WHITE."
6. SQUEEGEE : If you have excess resin, squeegee it off to the side.
Use squeegee with many light passes to move epoxy from wet areas
to dry areas.
