Question about Faces in SketchUp?
- 
 1.The face on component 1 is touching or interfacing with the face on 
 component 2.2.The face on component 2 covers the whole face of component 1 and it will not 
 be visable on the finished model.3.I usually delete the touching face on component 1 where it interfaces with 
 component 2.4.I delete faces where this condition happens in order to reduce the number 
 of face as it relates to rendering.5.Is this a good procedure? I also delete the faces to stop the "flashing" 
 caused by two faces interfaceing with each other.Thanks for your help, Bob

 Will be normal with a "single" object, but very curious with different Components because a component without a face will be "no solid" so maybe some problem ! Delete double faces of a component is normal (there is plugins for that !

 If you are applying flat components onto faces then you will get 'z-fighting'. 
 Give the component correctly oriented axes and gluing/cutting behavior - it them 'removes' the face behind it, even as you move the instance...
 If you are applying it onto a face that is inside another component or group it cannot cut, so 'z-fighting' reappears.
 An Image never 'z-fights' even when applied onto another face directly.
 Depending on your object could a rectangular image be used inside the component definition ?
