Greetings all,

A lot of effort to go through for little reason. Firstly, the first layer behind the gelcoat is the critical one that you don't want voids behind. The gelcoat is what needs the support, after that first layer any voids in the mould aren't too critical. Obviously this is within reason, you don't want large areas of bridging or large/lots of voids. But regular laminating techniques, so good stippling with the brush and then going over the entire mould with a roller, will ensure that those voids don't occur.
