TheNewbie Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I apologize first of all as I'm sure this is a repeating question but I can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere.. I'm looking to learn to fiberglass and wondering what I'll need. The resin resin hardener also bondo with the mdf rings. But what goes on top of the rings that I apply the resin too. I'm trying to find the process to do this but can only find one vid of a guy not talking at all... If anyone. Could help me out with this or toss me a good link for it I'd appreciate it greatly I'm on mobile trying to look everywhere. I apologize again I'm sure there's always some noob wanting to fiberass something Quote Check out my build log: http://www.stevemead...60#entry1958353 Different folks have different strokes.

jrchevy87 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 fleece is a type of fabric, its what some blankets are made out of but dont get thick fleece cuz it will soak up A LOT of resin, and mat is fiberglass strands stuck together that gives it strength Quote Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
