Definitely fiberglass. After covering my NorthStar with a film, not monocote, I had all kinds of adhesion problems in the areas that got wet. I peeled off all the stuff that normally touches water and replaced it with 1/2 oz. glass cloth. If you are careful and squeegee the excess resin, the weight is only slightly more than the film with much better adhesion,
