Epoxy on soundboards

[Nichols]

David,
    I would assume that the panel was dried-down for repairs anyway, no? 
Probably not necessary to bring it down to 5%, or thereabouts, but I would 
definitely make sure it wasn't "wet"!
One thing.... make sure that there are no leaks. Yknow..... like through 
the board, onto the bracing wedges, and then onto a beam. <G> BTDT
