: I thought it was such a great deal, I bought 40 yards from them! Shawn,

Which did you buy from Hamilton? 6 oz x 60", 5.5 oz x 50" (I assume you did not buy the biaxial). Did you buy any fiberglass tape from them?

What is the name of the cloth that has the fibers in it that dissolve when you use polyester resin? I know that's what I don't want because epoxy will not dissolve the fibers so they show through, but I don't remember the name.

: I had them ship it rolled, and they supplied the tube.

: 40 yards rolled is unwieldy while laying it out on the boat, but not
: impossible.

: The glass wasn't wrinkled, packaged well, and works well. I'll use them again
: (after I use up 40 yards!!!)
