Many tons of tanks

I'm sorry to hear about the computer...hope it's up and running 100%.

: Sorry I did't get back to you in a more timely manor* on your question about
: the qualities of Dynel fabric (for skid plates)- here is blurb from my
: source of info www.johnrsweet.com (purveyor of reasonably priced
: boatbuilding materials)...

: Dynel Fabric: Dynel fabric has very high abrasion resistance but swells in
: the resin such that it works better if vacuum bagged or pressure molded.
: The most common uses of this fabric are for wear patches on boats, edgings
: on paddles, and the like. It has also been used as a deck covering on
: wooden sailboats. It seems to be a good choice anywhere that abrasion is a
: major issue. Please note that it retains a milky appearance when saturated
: rather than turning clear in the resin like fiberglass. Hence it is not a
: good choice if one desires to see the underlying wood, as on a strip
: canoe. Style 90285 is a 30x30, 660 denier 2-ply twisted yarn, 5 oz plain
: weave.
