This is the wood and pipe spinable mold and the first layer of polyproplene sheeting. The second layer is taped with mylar tape.

Three layers of 1.5 oz fiberglass mat are applied using polyester resin, before  and after each layer of glass. The surface is then rolled smooth as possable. Once the resin is cured in 1-3 hours you have a fiberglass tube.

The tube is then filled with automotive type body filler, and tacked to remove the dust, before priming

This is the first heavy prime with urathane sealing primer
