I saw some of the Audio guy's on one of those tv shows doing a complete custom trunk enclosure with this non toxic mix, they didn't have to wear any protective clothes or masks until the sanding.  What is this stuff?  I fiberglass quite a bit, not a problem in the summer when I can open the garage door and turn on some fans, but it's winter up here in canada, and that is no longer an option!  This low odor non-toxic stuff would be ideal....if it is any good.

Anybody know what I am talking about?

Probably something very expensive. There are a lot of different types of epoxy's that can be used with fiberglass. I think I have seen some in a marine shop, forgot the brand but it was about $60 bucks a gallon. Then after that there were some parts that cost upwards of $100 bucks.

I have used the Marine Epoxy before when using foam molds, and it is far from low odor!

This is a new stuff that is being used?

Not sure, never heard of it. That would be really nice if it was affordable.
