The more common name for glass reinforced polyester is fiberglass. It is a composite material made from a polymer matrix reinforced with glass fibers, known for its strength, lightweight properties, and resistance to corrosion. Fiberglass is widely used in various applications, including construction, automotive, and marine industries.

No its not, its very stiff, poly urathane is more flexable and a hell of a lot more durable. Thin thin layers of fiber glass, like 1 or 2 sheets is flexible and not durable, breaks very easily. But reinforced plastic fiberglass, flexible, no its not, very very stiff.
Transparent materials, like glass and plastics, have properties that allow light to pass through them. They are used in various industries for applications such as windows, lenses, packaging, and displays. Glass is known for its durability and clarity, making it suitable for use in buildings, vehicles, and electronics. Plastics, on the other hand, are lightweight and flexible, making them ideal for packaging and consumer products. Overall, transparent materials play a crucial role in enhancing visibility, protection, and aesthetics in different industries.
