Okay, I have some specific questions about the various fiberglass fabrics and epoxy resins:
Fiberglass Cloth
Epoxy :*Epoxy Resins and Hardeners
For the skin on my 1/4 scale CarBEN model, what weight and type of fiberglass fabric would be best?
For the full size shell of the CarBEN EV, what weight and type of fiberglass fabric would make sense? For the bottom and the surfaces where suspension components will be attached, I am thinking that using a heavier fabric will be good.
To make smooth wheel covers, or wheel strakes, or belly pan -- the same question?
I know I need to use epoxy resins since I am using EPS foam to build up and carve the forms; but should I use the medium set time thin epoxy, or the slow, or the fast? The outside will have the skin first, and then I'll skin the inside, as well. The inside of the hood area, the inside of the battery compartment in the floor, and the front and rear wheel wells and skirts, also will be fiberglassed.
Should I get the 1oz pumps? What applicators, rollers, gloves, masks, suits, etc. would you recommend?
