Re: So, Moving Right Along...
This build is way off the rails.......lets see if we can get you on track bud.
First off....as far as re sizing pics.....I prefer using the photo bucket method rather than the thumbnail attachments.
If you upload your pics to photobucket then you can resize them easily with the photobucket re size button....the size is 680x420
then copy the img tag......and paste it into your post......the pics look like this
If this is all greek to you......it wont be when you get into the photo bucket site.....it is quite easy.
Ok....your boat.
The approach you are taking is time consuming and you will end up with a weak result.
Never use resin alone....on anything. resin needs fiberglass and glass needs resin......with out each other...they are weak to the point of no use.
First off.....forget the bedliner... it is an unnessary step that will gain you nothing.

Grind out all the bondo.....get rid of it.
Then vaccume all the dust out...and clean the area with acetone.
Make up a resin. cabosill/powered glass fiber compound......we call it peanut butter on the forum.
The recipy is in the index in my sig.
use a little more resin.....so the stuff is a consistency of peanut butter.
then using a trowel......spread the stuff on the hull
then take 1.5 oz chopped strand matt....and cover the area with the fiberglass. (glass as usual)
This whole process will only take you 1 minit per squair foot after the grinding and cleaning.........done.
this is the correct way of repairing gouges cracks and other minor scuffs in the inner hull.....if the hull is penetrated...add 2 layers of 1708 over the area.
