So as the title suggests, Iam looking for alternatives to fiberglass.. reasons are... well the stuff is going to my head even with proper ventillation and respirator.....
EpoxAcoat® RED Surface Coat Epoxy was suggested (by Smoon-On, but hey, looks promising, right?)

or even
EpoxAmite® 100 Laminating Epoxy (102 in specific)
http://www.smooth-on.com/Laminating-Epoxies/c1335_1336/index.html
Although EpoxAmite might not be reasonable since it has such a long cure time (6-8 hours for the FAST stuff)
Has anyone dabbled with these yet?
I'll admit they are a tad on the expensive side for 'paper hardening' techniques, but Honestly if they can get a thin coat and add tremendous strength or at least east of process, I'am willin to give em a try... just money's a bit tight right now and I can't buy both to test out. Lol.
Or any other type of hardening agent. Even for "inside use" instead of Outside use.
"Plastic Resin Glue" was suggested, and 1lb of it (powder, mix w/water to activate) is like $7 which if it can get the results fiberglass does then it's definately a better deal then fiberglass itself (especially at $20+ a small can)
