Default Glassing

Ok guys, I need some help with my memory here. It's been about 7 years since I built and glassed plane.
Im getting close to the finishing stages of my TF P39 and I want to glass it.

I for the life of me cannot remember all the steps I took when glassing. If memory serves me right, I laid the 3/4 cloth on the parts, then mixed denatured alcohol with a little bit of epoxy and blushed it all on.
Does this sound right?

After it dried I think I mixed up some finishing epoxy and spread it all over the surface and removed the pooled areas to make it all smooth.

Am I forgetting anything?
I can't remember if I mixed the alcohol with the finishing epoxy on the final application or if it was epoxy alone.

Also, I can't remember where I got the denatured alcohol, I think someone just gave me some, where can I buy it?
