In Response To: Material: clothing cloth under fibergalss (Karl Huebner)

: Greetings: I went into a clothing store Friday with the boss (aka Wife) and
: saw some cloth that would look good under the glass and epoxy on the canoe
: I am currently building. Has anyone tried this? Would you put the cloth on
: top of the glass? What fibers should I avoid to decrease the chance of
: delamination?
: Would a good spar varnish decrease the fading of the fabric?

Gray Whale Trading Co. worked with CLC to design the San O paddleboards. For a while Gray Whale was selling not only the kits but also Hawaiian print fabric to install on the decks. I believe they applied it under the glass.
