Hi, I just saw a video where the guy used fiberglass surface tissue as a last layer to give a smooth surface to gel coat onto. I had never heard of it before, its basically a thin CSM with a smooth side I think. Anyone ever use it and what did you think?

Yep, Sand and fair, then sand, then fair, then repeat. No real easy way around it, no magic wand.
