I actually ordered a DVD from www.glswrkz.com that is supposed to have step by step footage of glassing, etc. I say "supposed to" because the place has been on back order since I ordered the DVD on May 9th. I just got a delivery confirmation TODAY. So, as of right NOW I wouldn't recommend ordering from them, unless you're incredibly patient. Drop me a private message and I'll reply when I get the order, let you know if it's worth it.

The DVD is good if you have a good understanding and a past experience with glassing . If you are a beginner and do not have your own equipment like a compressor, sanding tools or spray guns, then this video is not a good purchase for you. Your better off with some how - to books or online how-to's.

LOL At this point, I'll be happy if it comes, by horse, carriage, or carrier pigeon.

what a bout some plexiglass dvd's... you know how to curve it and shape it better and is it good for those who just have a basic knowledge on how to cut it..... and bend it a little with a hot gun

I bought the VCD and it wasn't exactly what I thought it was going to be. I thought it would be more indepth for a beginner who had never fiberglassed before, but to me it seems like you have to have some knowledge though. Also some of the things he did I thought that is how they did them, and once I saw that IS the way to do them it made me feel more confident.

Integration, I'm just wondering, did you buy your VCD from glswrkz, and if you did, how FREAKING long did it take for you to get yours, cause now I'm pissed off. I got sent a delivery confirmation, but basically it says that the post office is waiting for the company to give them a package to send. Now, instead of just me waiting for this guy to complete the order, so's the damn post office. If I see this guy at a car show, I'm about ready to piss on his booth! Sorry...I just had to vent there. -Pete

Don't forget that I had ordered the VCD not the DVD which has already been made for awhile. I think it took a week if I remember correctly. pspadotto wrote:
