To all of you who have fiberglass skills and knowledge:
Time to order fiberglass supplies to start work on all of the various glass tasks that must be done. I plan to start by working on the cowl.
I am trying to compile a list of supplies so I can get most of the basics with one order. I have searched previous threads but would like a "current" list of suggestions as to what I should purchase. Remember, I am a newbie with NO previous fiberglass experience!
Here is what I have gleaned from previous threads:
1 quart West Systems 105 Epoxy
1 pint of 206 hardener
Set of metered pumps (MANDATORY) After getting the pumps, use a Sharpie and mark the halfway point on the stroke of the pumps for smaller quantity use.
Small container of 410 micro filler
1" Wide glass tape 10 yrd pack (if you are going to glass in the tail stuff)
.007 thickness
2" Wide glass tape .007 3yrd pack
3" Wide glass tape .007 2-3yrd packs
Mixing cups
Peel Ply
Small squeeges
205 hardner
Cotton flocking (1/2 lb)
Rotary cutter
As always, any help will be appreciated!
