The silver-like finish on the coated side of Aluminized Fiberglass adds a distinctive appearance and aesthetic appeal. This cloth is best suited for use in flat, minimally contoured parts due to the added stiffness from the coating, which can make forming 3D shapes more challenging.

Aluminized fiberglass cloth features a silver-like coating on one side, giving it a distinctive aesthetic and reflective finish. While visually appealing, the added coating increases stiffness, making it best suited for flat parts with minimal contours. It’s not recommended for complex 3D shapes due to reduced flexibility.

Yes, epoxy resin is ideal for wetting out fiberglass cloth and other reinforcements like carbon fiber and Kevlar. It saturates the fabric well and cures into a strong, durable laminate.
Yes. When used with the right resin, fiberglass cloth bonds well to wood, metal, foam, and other substrates.
The weight refers to ounces per square yard. Lighter cloth (e.g., 4oz) is more flexible and used for fine finishing; heavier cloth (e.g., 10oz) provides more strength and bulk.
Use sharp scissors or a utility knife. To reduce fraying, you can lightly mist the cloth with water or use tape to mark the cutting line.
Fiberglass cloth is used to reinforce composite materials in applications like boat building, surfboard repairs, auto bodywork, and structural laminates. It’s combined with resin to form a strong, lightweight composite.
Fiberglass cloth is woven for strength in specific directions, while chopped strand mat is made of randomly oriented fibers and is better for building bulk.
