White Fiberglass Resin

[Chuck G.]

Is anyone aware of a source to buy white fiberglass resin? I have only seen green and blue colored resins in all of my years of fooling with fiberglass. I want to do some "underbody" work on my 54, which has a white fiberglass underbelly. I don't want to get involved in re-gelcoating or painting a few spots here and there. Any help appreciated.

I've never seen "White" resin, however I have used clear polyester resin with white fiberglass cloth which when cured has the natural honey color that my '58 has. I bought the stuff from a boat material supply house, who tells me the resins can be mixed with any color I wanted. Give them a try.

Thanks Mark; That's a great idea. I live in Maryland, near the Chesapeake Bay. Lots of marine supply stores. I'll give one a try. I'm actually trying to duplicate the "honey" color that you describe. Chuck Gongloff
