OT- Fiberglass help

No hands on experience as I have allergys, but I used to be a buyer at Shelby American.

I'm thinking 20oz cloth mat & epoxy resin that's what we used for prototype car ducts & molds.

Koda; that is a good point, that $8 more a gallon is worth not have a melted goop of foam haha how about 1708 Biaxial cloth? 360 strength of chopped but much stronger?

BYpro: 20 oz on proto-types? wow thats beefy!


also if i finish using a gel coat is there any advantage? or should i just use normal paint+ clear coats?

issue with the racers is they all use super lightweight glass, expecting not to take a hit.
and boat builders are a whole different breed haha
