so 32 disposable chip brushes, and 100 latex gloves arent worth your $15?

the other stuff is for people who dont wanna spend money on tools they will use once or twice. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

US Composites is nice if you live close, the shipping would cost almost as much as the resin for me. I found a local fiberglass supplier who sells standard lay up resin for $22 gallon out the door with free MEKP (you have to buy at least a gallon for the free activator). My local supplier also sold the 3/4 chop matte for cheaper than USC could.

so what, $13 to the north east for 20LBS + 20hazard fee. thats like $100 for 5 gallons of resin, shipped. for 20\gal, thats $15 cheaper than i can get it locally.

are those the prices locally?

 

[AzGrower 10+ year member]

$22 a gallon out the door is still cheaper locally in Tucson, Arizona...sorry. And he sells his 5 gallon pails for $92.00 out the door, you can do the math. Plus the activator is free. Thats why I stated that it depends on where you live if its cheaper to get it locally rather than order it in. The one thing that I cant get locally is the higher grade cloth.
