REFLECTOR: Triax which side is up?

[Alex Balic]

Structurally, it will be the same, but the difference is do you want to
fill the space between the roving with heavy resin ( roving side down)
or with dry micro (light.)  and go head and take the time to pull out
all of the ripples too- I got an average of maybe 3" / strand of extra
tension when I pulled all of mine - be prepared for hand cramps...

This may be a stupid question, I am ready to start glassing my left wing
and the manual isn't very clear on which is the top (smooth) side of the
triax? Both sides seem smooth to me. I am assuming that the side with
the continous straight glass fibers is the top. Is this true? I don't
feel that this is a good time to guess, I would like to be very sure
before I destroy a wing.
