David,

dhal22 is apparently not available to answer my question about ''peel-ply''. Can you give me some understanding about how the dacron can be ''peeled'' after essentially bonding it to the underlying glass?

ChiefK, sorry, i didn't realize you were asking me. the dacron term threw me. i was calling it dress liner or peel ply. i have no idea why the peel ply doesn't stick to the epoxy. there is a king kobra thread in the kit building forum where the builder uses peel ply thoughout the finishing stage. i tried it and liked it. i wouldn't even say you need to practice the technique. it is pretty simple.
