You got it Peaman.You can paint a little clear lam over the lap before glassing to fill the gap if you want…it is safer. .If you use volan it will have to be another cut lap unless you use the volan as the deck inlay and the silene for the full overlap.If you want to do a different color deck it is nothing more then an inlay.Add the color to your lam resin and glass it…trim when jelled…clean up the bumps when dry and then glass the last layer with the overlap.Hot coat it,then sand before pinlining.

Howzit Rob, ever have problem with the resin absorbing some of the wax from the paper on the rack and resulting in waxed resin spots that you have to clean before you do the hotcoat? I just retape the racks with the tape sticky side down.Aloha, Kokua
I do the sticky side down thing also and it works fine,its just that I flip em pretty green and I dont like to take chances.Yep sometimes I get a bit of wax on the board but its minute and I can get it with acetone and a clean white paper towel.Maybe its just a personal quirk.I always use the waxpaper grab trick though. R.B.
Thanks for all your help with that one. The FEDEX guy arrives tommorow bearing gifts, goodies and Volan. Hopefully it will keep me out of mischief. Regards from old London town. Have a good one Peaman
Howzit Rob, I hear ya,If it ain’t broke don’t fix it,I use the wax paper too when fipping a board.Aloha, Kokua
