I agree; there is no point in repeating past criticism. Since I'm the builder, I'm making the decisions on when to use resin and fiberglass mat or a fiberglass reinforced filler. Your method would certainly work, but it would take much more time and it's just overkill for what I consider a cosmetic repair.
I have to rebuild the upper part of the grille mounting flange on the nose section, where the OZE folks buggered it up to install the original ill-fitting grille. I'll 36 grit sand both sides and probably use 6-8 layers of mat to build that flange up thicker than when new. I'll post some pictures that you would approve of.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
