Fcs powder what is it made of?

Hello anyone knows what this is? actually my guesses are:

1- calcium carbonate
2- cilica
3- some ceramics
I would be more happy to get it at a regular drugstore then by mail order.

Cheers and good waves.

it is milled glass fibre. it has a nice color for repairs…

Cheers,

So i can just put some pieces of fiberglass on a blender and i will get the stuff?
Will it work?

Thanks

Just buy the bag! Don’t put fibres in a blender please. Or Google “milled fibre glass powder” to get it cheaper. Any surfboard shaping supply business has it. You in the US?

No, and in europe most of the shaper suplies sellers are closing shop or sell very expensive stuff.
Anyway the powder has a grainy texture…more like stone, are you sure is milled fiber?

You can check the vyralsurf website to get an idea.

Cool, i reserchead a little and found that behind all that there is the composite industry.
A lot of fiberglass, pigments etc… Way cheaper.

Check these online if you want

Castro composites
Eco composites
I think the first one sends mail orders.

Cheers and good waves

For most of this kind of stuff I buy from US Composites as a backyarder. If you have a legitimate business set up you can buy basically everything for glassing boards from North American Composites.
