Using glassfire
I am building up some glass fibre parts, speaker installs being one of them.
I have got the main shape sorted with the matting and resin, have also put on the easysand filler on the top and am currently sanding it all down to make it smooth.
The problem I have is that there seems to be lots of little micro holes in certain areas, I could keep sanding to get down but this will mean taking off a lot of filler and I seem to get more occuring as I sand more?
I have tried filling the holes then sanding back down but as I said above I always seem to find more. I have tried giving it a coat of white primer to see if it will fill the holes but becuase the paint is so thin it didnt really help.
It has been suggested that I try a spray filler but not sure what I should be buying. Is there a gel kinda spray that I should be using to gently fill all of the holes?
