"Are you actually applying fiberglass mat/cloth or do you mean you're just applying the polyester?"
Just the resin to a typical, untreated, pine 2 x 4. I didn't figure I'd need to use the cloth for this part.
I'm seriously thinking about going ahead and using the cloth/resin for the joints of the FRP that lines the bottom section of the cage. I've got a good bead of waterproof (yeah, we've heard that before) construction adhesive on the joints now. I've already roughed the surface of the FRP a tad to get a good bond with the fiberglass.
The next one I do I'll most likely give the two-part floor epoxies a try instead of using FRP. If I could see a similar application that it's been used in I'd have a better idea of whether it would work for me. Or, if I could work it. One or the other.
Later!
