Info Please!!! how is this stuff to wet out? what oz. cloth are you using? How does it compare to standard 6oz E cloth in weight and strength? I think they’re is quite a supply of it around here. (this is Vancouver BC after all) I’d be curious to hear how this compares to other material. I’d like to try it on EPS with epoxy.

hydro,sorry for taking so long replying to your post.

I’m not really sure what the cloth I am using weighs,but I’d say heavier than 6oz E.

And there is also a wide variety of cloths, so could take time to figure out the best one for

surfboards.And if compared to 6ozE, heavier but also stronger.

So a ligther core would do the trick…

Am working on an EPS-hemp right now…

Hemp is not mairjuana. Although it grows the same leaves and looks a lot like marijuana it isn't. The chemical, THC is not present in this plant and is legal throughout the world.

It’s all cannabis sativa. There are some varieties cultivated to minimize the drug potential (minimal THC, maximal CBD). but it is all the same species, and could likely revert to type quickly.
