1 Tube of MEK ( Methyl Ethyl Ketone ) Hardener -- .37 fl. oz. (11 ml)
1 Fiberglass Mat----- 8 Sq. ft. ( 0.7432 m2)

about that much Id say

 

[bigdrock44]

do you think the amount of resin is enough though for 8 sq. ft.?

 

[NZTK]

generally you want a litre per square metre, so that looks about right to me.

 

[bigdrock44]

ok. thank you for the help.

My dad bought this for me for my helmet. the mat is really hard to work with. My dad and i ripped it up and used it like that.

 

[bigdrock44]

did i come with fiberglass mat, the one with all the fibers smashed together, or was it the cloth, where the fibers are weaved together. because with the mat i think youre supposed to rip it up and put it into the nooks and crannies but with the cloth youre supposed to cut it to fit the area that you are fiberglassing.

Really, what comes in that small box wont be enough to make an entire suit of armor, get everything seperate. Cheaper than buying multiple repair kits.

i wasnt trying to make a whole suit at the moment. i was focusing on the helmet right now. maybe ill do the rest later but i dont know if i want to spend that much money.
