Does this make sense?

Lowes it is then. I'll pick up a carbide paint scraper there this weekend. This has been a good thread, have learned alot. I was wondering how it would be sanding a run in this epoxy and was concerned that while sanding down a run I'd also be sanding on either side of it where it isn't necessary. I just might throw some epoxy onto a scrap piece of wood and get a few runs and practice with the scraper on that before I attack the boat itself.

To recap...once I have a smooth epoxy coat over all the hull, covering all the glass cloth, I want to attack any runs with a carbide paint scraper. THen give the entire hull a good sanding. Start with maybe 120 grit and end with 220 grit or finer. Then I'm to apply a final coat of epoxy. A light coat with no runs. And I can brush it out with a foam brush after applying with a roller. Then its on to the deck and the rest of the construction manual. Does this plan make sense?
