So cool to see the process

[@kimmelfab]

We will definitely be making more how-to videos in the future!

[@savvyamber]

Cool. The chemistry of the different process steps is fascinating!

[@kimmelfab]

I tried to take this opportunity to clear up a few common misconceptions on resins!

[@brandoncole3126]

I wish I would've had this video when I first attempted fiberglass. That would have been such a big help in visualizing the process. 👍👍

[@kimmelfab]

Hopefully this can help out on your next project!

[@cheesenips84]

This is so awesome, I have wanted to know how this is done for so long. Thank you for sharing

[@kimmelfab]

Thanks for watching!

[@krambertube]

I like the tips given during the video such as checking for loose bristles in the brush. It is always annoying when bristles come out of the brush right away when doing a project.

[@kimmelfab]

Little things like a bristle in your top coat can really cause problems. I wanted to show any issues we have encountered in the past and hopefully prevent others from having those same problems!
