Title: Fiberglass mat on stringers
Post by: flames on April 27, 2016, 08:17:04 PM

How many time do you cover your stringers with fiberglass mat and resin?  Also do you sand in between each layer? I have heard you don't have to sand.

I've layed up a few layers at a time. I normally do alternating layers of matte and cloth.

Check out this thread. I based my whole build off of it. Turned out great!
