I have been using Nitril gloves for applying the epoxy to the glass cloth with my fingers, I can apply pressure and skim the cloth of excess and so don't need to use a credit card for skimming. Even if I use one glove for each pass it will only cost 24p for four passes. I am very tactile and like to have control of my medium, it works for Me.
Epoxy Resin.
Glass Cloth.
Applied with fingers wearing Nitril gloves.
Just as accurate as a brush, applies better pressure and costs a fraction.
