surface?

Hi guys just wanting to know, what is the best surface to fibreglass my fins?

Any tips would be appreciated

kingdub,

Don’t know what is best or if you are talking about fiberglass over wood. I glass(fiberglass over wood) on a flat board covered with wax paper. Mike

Anything smooth enough can be waxed. I use a coated particle board. I think it’s called Melamine. Some people use glass.

If you have a plastics shop I know they give me scraps even if I don’t want them when I mention what I’m doing. Usually a clear or white polycarbonate I think. Would be easy to remove the fins if you wax them but I think they might get scratched up if you got resin on an unwaxed spot. Not sure how good the resin bonds to it though.

I use glass from old 8x10 picture from. Buff it with a small amount of turtle wax and the fin panels peel right off.
