Fiberglass newbie here, long story short, scarfing to add material to horizontal hinge line on upper cowl resulted in upper cowl surface now sitting about .1" proud of lower cowl when the top and bottom cowl hinges are joined back together. I now need to build up mating edge of lower cowl to blend in my transgression.
1) Should I use few layers of fiberglass or epoxy & micro to build up the .1" height?
2) How far down from the hinge line do I need to extend this blending of .1" buildup? Do I go from .1" build up back to natural surface of lower cowl over 1" .... 4" other? Not sure if there is a rule of thumb for this?
Thx for the help
