A co-worker of mine (think Ravenna, B!) needs some fiberglass mat to build some bits for his newly-acquired race bike. Does anyone have a local "hookup" here in the Bay Area (south bay or east bay preferred) to get the materials nice and cheap?

The usual place: TAP Plastics, but be warned, they are expensive for everything, I try my hardest not to buy from them.
otherwise, West Marine (boat supply chain) and depending on location San Antonio Hobby on El Camino for small quanties. |

Try Sherwin-Williams. Not the house paint store, see if they have a commercial outlet in your area. Around here, that is the best place to get stuff like that.

It's not local, but it is only 1-2 days away, FiberGlast. VERY good prices and a really wide selection of different fabrics and resin systems.

Just an FYI....
For items such as the resin, they might be listed as a Hazardous Item and you'll get socked with a surcharge for shipping. Just make sure to ask so that your "savings" are not eaten up in shipping and extra charges. |

usually combustable (sp?) items and hazardous stuff can only be shipped ground.
