Looking for a roll offiberglass...

[Psycho Joe]

I am in the process of building a kayak. I am to the point of fiber-glassing this thing and would like to get know if anyone has a line on some fiber glass material. I am looking for a roll 52" X 14'.

Are you building one of the "stitch and glue" kind or something else?

[Psycho Joe]

You know, I always build something else!

I buy my fiberglass from Raka.com. If you want a clear finish, specifically ask them to roll it otherwise they fold the cloth. You'll pay more for shipping, but I think it is worth it. I've found that folds are visible once you wet out the fiberglass. Maybe I'm the only one that can tell, but it is also easier to layout prior to applying epoxy. You don't have to fight the creased weave. I usually use 6 oz. cloth. If this is your first time using fiberglass and epoxy, 4 oz. cloth will be easier to wet out and fill the weave.

Talk to Mike. Has everything you need and then some. Including lots of very useful knowledge.

Not sure how your build is planned, but if need anything structurable and rot proof, ak him about Coosa.
