The Fiberglass

After prepping the dragon with spray foam insulation, it was ready for Fiberglass. I had to do a lot of research on how to apply fiberglass since I had never used anything like it. When applying fiberglass, you first start by cutting out sheets of the fiberglass to size so that you use only what you need. Then, we pinned the pre-cut fiberglass to the foam using bent paperclips. While cutting the Fiberglass, the fibers are released into the air and get everywhere. We had to wear head to toe protection with barely any skin showing along breathing protection. Fiberglass is a bad irritant. Once the fiberglass was pinned on, we brushed on resin mixed with hardener. It was supposed to take a couple hours to cure. However, after 3 days, the resin was still sticky. I decided to research another route.
