i have a question concerning fg!!

at work we have these sheets of fiberglass that is placed into molds and a poly mix is poured into it to form door panels !      so my question is this !!!   can i use this fg to make a incloser???   i dont know the weight or thickness .    the strains are kind of long and thick.       the reason im asking is i can get as much of this stuff as i want for free!!!!

if it's fiberglass, then I don't see why not.  You'll have to experiment with the thickness of it though...see how thick and strong a few layers.  For the most part, fiberglass is fiberglass...the thickness and texture just varies how much you'll need and how easy it'll be to lay.  It sounds like this is a heavy chop mat, in which case it won't be good for corners or tight places, but it'll build up faster on flatter and larger sections.  If you can snap a pic, post it up here...it'll be a lot easier for someone to give you some more definite advice.
