Hi Ben - I've been following your efforts within the Vetter competitions and your aims for small-scale production, and I'm impressed with your efforts.
So, if I can offer some advice about prototype bodywork production, let me refer you to a method that I use. I've started to outline this system, with images on my Project 100 thread and I know that you would benefit from this methodology.
I remember how daunting fibreglass felt to me when I first used it, and I read posts all the time from people who have never really got to grips with it. Now, with time, experience and a lot of study I feel its like second nature - and I'm here to tell you that "traditional" fibreglassing techniques will suit you best. Stop trying to find your way around the normal methods, experimentation is for those who already have an extensive skill set. It will be quicker and cheaper for you to get to grips with normal "wet lay-up" techniques IMO.
First step - have you got any images or plans/drawings for your final body design?
regards
Pete
