Re: Before Glassing Deck.

I don't agree completely. He said void not dip.

The gap along the deck / hull seam should be filled with epoxy and wood flour or whatever you used to glue the two together so it will blend the best. Either will do the job.

But the knot in the deck ply could be filled with straight epoxy or thickened a bit with some sanding dust from deck itself. You might have to heat it with a hair dryer to get it to flow in if the goo is cool but otherwise work it in with a toothpick or something so you do not get bubbles. This might show if you do not fill it.

Mask both areas first so you have no blending problems later when you glass the deck.
