hmm, its a bastard to use, must admit ive never really got that hang of the matting, i always find it all comes apart when you put the fibreglass on it and spread it bout, then i spend longer trying to smooth it
i find the isopon tubs easier to use, P38, or P40 can never remember which ones which, just chuck the hardner in mix up and smooth over.
dont use to much tho, otherwise you spend hours trying to sand it down
two types of matting, a tissue one thats for a smoother finish, and normal one for building up layers
