Here is the way I filled in the hole in the floor where the old I/o was located. This is the before and the after:

First off I took my fiber prep panel and waxed it well then primed it with a roller. Then I laid down several layers of matt. You can see it as it is still wet in the pic and then cured white in the next. Once that cured I cut wood blocks to fit the panel:

Then I mixed a thickend resin to glue the blocks down with. Note- I used the red hardener so I could see that the cabosil and resin had a even mixture of hardener in it. Once they were down, while still wet I mixed some resin even thicker to go between the blocks. Then once the blocks were filled I placed several layers of mat over it and got out any air. The vinyl ester with the red hardener turns almost a light pink.:
