Solarez is the future. It's fast, easy and economical. You can glass a board in about 1 to 2 hours! It saturates the fiberglass quickly and cure time is extremely rapid. Solarez sands better because it cures harder and the board comes out light and strong.Also there is no unnecessary waste. http://www.solarez.com

  • Just go on their web site at: solarez.com

  • does the tarp has to be blue to block UV rays?

  • @atubero

    Anything that "blocks"the light...

    "Reflecting" is even better!

  • hay mate were can you buy this stuff cant find it any were. need the big amount that you are using. thanks

  • thx for the video!!! this is a great tutorial video, simple, easy to follow if u r a beginner shaper. I got tired of spending loads of money on surfboards that in the end did not respond as expected, that's why I wanna make my own boards from now on...

  • did you use zerovoc before you glassed this?

  • @KRauSLoCo

    Not very strong and quite brittle. It's the same as any polyester resin, just that they mix in a UV-activated curing agent. This means you don't have to use 1.5% MEKP

    Polyester monomer is still very toxic.

  • good job

  • So there is no Bisphenol-A involved in the process? That would be great!

    It is still toxic?

    Is it as strong as epóxi resin?

  • Just shaped my first board, followed your videos on glassing and installing a fin box, made a beautiful 6.1" singlefin. thanks
