i went to walmart just now and they dont have anything, there is a boat marina near my house im thinking may have the stuff but they are closed. And then there's ebay. i may just spend $40 and get one of the 5 quart packages off that site. It does come with everything i will ever need, but i want it so i can start tomorrow, anyone know another place that sells fiberglass, resin and hardener??

You sure Walmart didn't have it?? Walmart and Advance Auto both sell little kits with everything you need. I got mine at Walmart.

It's weird stuff, try doing paper mache with syrup as practice. Oh, but light a plastic model and have it boiling away in the background while you are, so you get the bouquet, too.

last night was the first i ever worked with the fiberglass, and i have to say its easier than i thought, i took off my door panel and all the black pieces on the outside or it. And then taped a plastic garbage bag over the top of the door panel itss self, over that i layed down a piece of fiberglass and then put on the main black center piece over the top, so basically everything was masked from getting fiberglass on it but the main black piece, then i mexed the resin and applied it, later after that dried, i put another layer of glass over it. Ill take a pic of it later once i get a chance. Right now i have the frame of the door shaped into fiberglass now, and i can start to make the mold where the tv will sit. Ill post pics as soon as possable
