Ive worked with fibergalss before, and while its harder to work with than bondo, its stronger and more flexible. It is however, NOT carbon fiber...
youre right... my friend has it and calls it carbon fiber i guess b/c it looks similar to it. they use that stuff on boats to fix the cracked hulls which are also fiberglass which makes sence now why they would be selling it at boat shops.
I didnt mean to make it seem like it was "actual" carbon fiber. i just called it that.
