I was reading that some people "thin" out the resin so it soaks into fleece better... how do you go about doing that?

It soaks just fine for me without thinning.

Yeah I've never had problem with it not absorbing into the fleece. You just have to "put more, more, more" like my friend tito would say.

Yeah I've already layed a layer of fleece on 1 project and it soaked about 95% through the underside was just a bit fuzzy still I poured maybe almost a quart of resin on... next time i'll use a brush and a bondo spreader... that should work!!! THANKS GUYS!!
