Here we can get a biaxial glass of 410 grams/sqm that is actually two layers of unidirectional glass lightly stitched together at +/- 45 deg as it comes off the roll. No cutting at 45 deg and no overlaps (high spots) to contend with when fairing. Just lay the roll at the root and run it to the tip. A sacrifical layer of deck cloth over that will take care of most pinholes and give a surface that needs very little filling. TIP: Just after doing the layup, sprinkle a generous amount of micro over the entire surface and gently rub it in to the weave. If your hands start to drag then you have too little micro. Be sure to wear gloves for this part. Allow to cure and sand away the excess micro and into the deck cloth for a good finish.
