"There were a few fibres proud, so the sanding down has eradicted these. (I wonder if the fibres made the whole surface porous, causing numerous leaks rather than one or two holes)"
Hi Steve,
You have answered your own question here. Any fibres should have been sanded or burnt off prior to painting with G4. They act like a wick and water will indeed seep out as you have described. However, you seem to be on the right track now. Good luck.
