The scale was set to troy oz...WTH?

Any way if you do the conversion from Troy Oz to grams its.

.26 toz or 8.08 grams dry weight with nothing on the sheet
.48 toz or 14.92 grams with 2 coats

Sorry about this i should have looked at the setting on that scale.

Thanks for catching that Scale only 4 me
You got it, I was trying to do the math.

So your test sheet is 54 sq. in. and you added 7 grams weight, that would calc to .13 grams/sq. in or 18.6/sq. ft. That less than an ounce per square foot,, not bad I guess
If I had a more accrtate scale I'd do a test sheet with .58 glass cloth/epoxy to compair the two

carry on,,,
