As above, got a couple of top secret projects on the carsd and will need a reasonable amount of P40 type pre-mixed fibreglass (can't be doing with the matting and resin - too messy).

So anyone got suggestions as Halfords are quite pricey for a tiny tin of the good stuff.

Cheers :shy:

Dunno where to suggest other than local motor factors really. You're never going to get it 'cheap' really.

How many tins will you actually need? I think one of our local motor factors used to do 5 litre tins of it, so they may still be available from somewhere?

well 5 litres may be overkill but it doesn't go off so could be cool.

might ask my mate at the bodyshop if he has any he would sell .....

Halfords on a trade card? They guarantee to beat the price of anywhere local to the store.

If you're moulding a dash or arches etc you'll really win all round with mat and resin. Like brushing honey rather than trying to juggle a bird's nest soaked in the stuff.
