I have worked in the fibreglass industry and have 30 years experience working with the hairy stuff. My tutorials were not designed to teach professionals at the top of the industry today, but rather to encourage the DIY car nut to not be afraid of laying stuff up. Part of this approach was to demytholigise some of the incorrect ideas about working with cloth & resins widely held by the average Joe. One consequence of uploading stuff on You Tube is that there is a world of experts all too quick to pass judgement. This applies on ANY subject!! Some people tell me I "am the man" and others say I'm a dickhead - whether it be a video tutorial on fibreglassing, basic brick laying, or taxidermy. Can both be true, or is the truth (hopefully) somewhere more in the middle? All I know is I have indeed encouraged many young petrol heads all round the world to have a go at glassing though these tutorials, meaning they've done the job I hoped they would.
