About the putty/clay: I didn't experience any problems with that at the time, however I must say I purchased mine at the same store where I bought all other materials (fiberglass/polyester resin/gelcoat etc) so they probably now which one works best ;) Then you probably got the right product :smile: I finally got some mould wax that worked very well
Good advice on that 45° angle, I wasn't really aware of that and was not paying special attention to that, but I do use twill weave cloth (instead of the regular square ones) and due to the twill weave, you kind of have a 45° rotated pattern anyway. Looking at my pictures it does look like most fibers are more on a 45° angle instead of a 90°...
