i have used rage gold. it sands easy but if your not a pro and you use alot more than you should id stay away from it. id rather spend 1/2 the money on regular light wheight evercoat then the rage. bass you should show us a pic of whats happening. they all harden the same its just how you mix it up. id stay with the evercoat because there are some cheaper ones out there but they suck ass and you only save a few bucks. ive done body work for about 10 years and i still dont use rage gold because it cost so much more and it dosnt make a difference you still have to sand it off and prime it. you can also buy that at any body shop store.

thats the price for ups shipping. they have truck shipping whatever that is, i think its mostly for body shops but its slower and only saves a couple bucks

Not sure where you get Rage Gold at, but it is wha all the pros use. If you find a place that sells it online, send me a link, I need some.

Oh well, I will get it

Just need to get a good easy sanding filler. Heard something about Rage GOld? I think Select Products sells it?

i just had the same thing happen to me. i made a mold to start on a guys glass box and had enough time on friday to lay down some mat and resin and came in today to work a little more on it and i had a couple places drop in on me. i just cut them out and reglassed it though, it was only like 1/2" pieces so no biggie...

Gonna get them soon. Going to order them tonight maybe.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass is the Devil...

So yeah I started working on ym door panels again, well actually the first one.

I have the part above the arm rest/door grab coated. I was pulling the glass cloth over the top and glassing on the back side also (just a few inches).

Anyhow I have noticed when Im glassing that some parts lift, especially when I stop on a surface and dont continue.

I have pressed afew surfaces down, but they raise up. I applied enough resin this time...hopefully it doesnt happen again.

So I guess the parts that raised and dried I will have to sand thru the mat. I can fill it with Bondo I guess, doesnt have to be all glass...

Help?
