RE: Which covering to use
I went to completely scale .com and kinda followed his instructions, I used the sanding sealer and Poly U he used anyway. I like the lighter glass and my last two coats of Poly I mixed it 50/50 with baby powder just to make sure the weave was filled. Almost all of this stuff sanded off and the plane came out very light and strong. There are just a lot of new/better ways to glass these days. Glassing is a lot more work then covering but the finish comes out great!!!
