For Fiberglass we'll need.
1) Mold release wax.

3) Gel coat.
4) Fiberglass in both fabric and chopped.
5) Resin
6) Polyester Fleece for for form building.

For paint and body.
1) Rage light weight body filler.
2) Glazing compound.
3) Self etching primer and poly primer.
4) Paint and clear coat.
5) Paint gun. I all ready own a good quality one but if someone has one of
those super fancy German ones and wants to let us use it then O.K.
6) Spray booth. I don't have one of those.

O.k. I'm pumped!!! Let's do this...
Word. I'm guessing the only thing we don't need is the self etching primer, sionce I think we'll be going the scuff and paint route. Taking it down to bear metal appears to be massively more work.

What about method and technique of creating molds? I think you once told me the way places like Veilside worked was to start with the stock. Build up off of that,then mold the result, then create the new part from the mold. Process?
