Fiberglass revisited
I came across some fiberglass at 1.6oz per yard. I bought a small
sample to play with but it's an extremely fine weave. I've been using the 1.45 oz e-glass for a while now. Can anyone tell me if this is just as good, better or worse to use? Lou

Can anyone tell me if this is just as good, better or worse to use? Lou It's harder to wet out. Strength should be the same, or better.

...1.6oz per yard... Just out of curiosity, what are you doing that requires such lightweight glass? Thanks, Bob K.

Fiberglass revisited
Well, I was putting my fuel tank together but ran out of the 1.45 that
I had from A/S So I ordered some from another company just to try out. At the same time I ordered some ..73oz and .5 just to play with. I was just a bit concerned when the stuff I ordered was extremely fine compared to the A/S stuff. Lou
