Check with a company called Composites One. I know of one in the Rhode Island area. I know that probably doesn't help much but I think they are nationwide. Maybe in Goergia or South Carolina. Hope that helps a little.

i use US composites and Fiberglast and have real good luck with both. seem to have best prices at US composites. one tip though, try and find a local source for resins. they are very heavy (aprox. 8 LBS/Gal) and expensive to ship. Fiberglast has a great on line learning center that has been very useful to me. they also have a forum board for more interactive help.

I bet an Apache could spare some. Just kidding, after the cops party and the Apache videos I have a new respect for them, even greater than before.

Seeman fiberglass carries everything you need. Cloth, laminating & finishing resins, Duratech finishes. They are in Harahan, a stones throw from the Huey P. Long bridge over the Misssissippi.
