You might also check your yellow pages for auto paint and supply places.

EB General Purpose Polyester Resin (with hardener)

SM-EB0500 - 5 Gallon - 73.50

i might buy one.

DO NOT BUY FROM ANY OF THOSE STORES! 2 gallons of resin will cost you 65ish+tax.

each gallon here is $17

but i dont know what shipping is. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

:werd:

The cheapest resin I could find at Napa was $36 gallon.

On that site, the cheap stuff was $17.50 a gallon.

As long as shipping is less that $18.50 per gallon you are doing good.

**** skippy.

i might buy 5 gallons.

because a gallon goes quick, and so does $35 after tax each //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

Doesnt resin and hardner have a shelf life. Id prefer to get it from like Uscomposits or selectproducts.com because from them it will be better resin that should be fresh or atleast fresh-er.

yeah HD resin is $32.97 I think and you usually have to buy at least 1 tube of extra hardener, which is like $3.97 and the mat is $5.97.

They like the .97!

Expensive as hell, adds up so fast, brushes, mat, resin/hardener, masks, gloves, shit...

I noticed on the uscomposites site that the cheap stuff is not for structural application.....I am going to be running 2 DD9515's with 2500 wrms to each, don't I want it for structural application??? Maybe I am thinking of it wrong, but am I on to something?

Yo req, I'm looking to do a bunch of fiberglassing in the next month, gonna do a 10 cubic ft - 15 cubic ft box in my trunk for an 18", then re-do my entire dash...would those supplies be enough for like 30 square feet of fiberglass...+ ??? layers.

So once I get the money, could you hook me up with all you resources and links for the materials I need?

I'm gonna need your help with this, so expect me to have a ton of post on this forum...lol.
