Youve gotta use the 1708 with poly, it needs the mat in between... I dont find 1708 to really help with fairing, it makes it more difficult if anything due to the thickness. Double tab everything, especially that joint because it wont be tabbed on the bottom... You can hold the second layer back a few inches when youre making panels,,, for the tabbing to lay into later and really help with fairing.
