Before I make a start on the Phase 6 I was going to have a practice of glassing a wing on another old EPP model but have some questions before I order in some materials to jump in the deep end. ;)

1. Use 25g glass cloth?
2. Z-Poxy Finishing Resin 4 oz plenty to do two models or more?
3. Epoxy Thinners 250 ml enough for two jobs? Is it really needed?

I've never used epoxy thinners, keeping everything warm works OK, warming the mixed resin helps with the spreading. Aim to get the cloth thoroughly wetted out without any trapped air bubbles. Use an old bank card to scrape the resin through the cloth leaving the bare minimum of resin. Have fun!
