I'm looking at having a go at making a fibreglass seat for my recumbent bike. Apart from the odd patch repair decades ago on a car, I've not done anything with fibreglass, so I'm spending a bit of time trying to get the subject a bit 'sussed'. But I have a question that I cannot seem to get an answer for. Most fibreglass I see advertised, as well as the differing styles [like chopped strand mat, and woven] is described as having a value of 300gm/MtrSqr, for exampke, but there is a guy advertising some as having a value of 'p6'. Has anybody got any idea what 'p6' means? He says that he uses p2 and p6, with p2 being a finishing cloth and the p6 tougher, but I've no idea how it compares to the other value methods [like 300gm/MtrSqr] used to describe fibreglass.
Any ideas
Many thanks Garry
