Fibreglass Suppliers - Stevens

[009-SPA]

Hey 405th, I've posted a topic before about another fibreglass company who sell quality stuff at competitive prices. Well, I've found a similar company who sell even cheaper, which is useful if you're buying in bulk like me. Products like body filler which can be hard to find in the UK are more than three times cheaper than buying from Halfords, and you good useful amounts too. Unless you want to drop by at their industrial unit, you have to pay for postage, but this is a trivial charge compared to the amount you can save. Feel free to have a look at their website as they not only sell things like mat and resin, but other advanced materials, like epoxy resin and Kevlar, as well as useful accessories, such as mixing pots and brushes.



This is what I bought yesterday, and arrived today:







It only cost £122.37 in total, which is very good considering the colossal amount of resin I bought. The body filler was less than £18 for three and a half litres, which, as I said, is more than three times cheaper than buying the same amount form Halfords. Good deal then? I think so.



I hope you find this info useful 405th.

From what I can see this store is only cheaper if you do buy in bulk. That's obviously good if you're a big consumer, but for smaller quantities their prices are a bit high compared to others. Just wanted to give a heads up for the smaller consumers.



A bit off topic maybe, but it seems they are using latex moulds for casting resin. Isn't that a big no-no?

Probably true, things are differnt here in the UK tho $#!Ts so f***ing expensive these days :@



Also.. East Coast Resins seem like a good alternate to this... prety damn cheap by my standards XD

Those prices aren't really cheap.



You can get 25kg of resin from cfsnet for £68.50 (after vat with their current 10% discount) and Halfords has a 3.5l filler for £22.99, add them together and even with delivery charges your looking just over £100.
