RE: G.P. <span class=
Volfly,
Very informed suggestions and also very helpful. Thanks. I sure learned a few new ones. I have only used fiberglass a few times. I used it when reinforcing the firewall to the mounting box on my Pitts Special. I used finish epoxy and liked the finish it provides. It added a nice glossy finish. Took forever to cure, but did the trick. I put a thin coat on the wood surface first and then applied the cloth with three additional coats. Firewall is solid.
Cap10b - can't help you with the Wild Hare. Like the G.P.iles though, even with the history.
