    Was it pretty awful? I remember doing it for the first time and getting pretty frustrated.

    That is why you MUST have good ventilation when working with these types of chemicals.

    ummm....yeah. absolutely. I remember the first time I worked with polyester resin, and I was in the garage, door open, big ol' fan blowing, and I STILL got a headache from it. Stuff's nasty. I've found, at least for small things, I prefer epoxy, it sets faster, is less sticky after setting, and it doesn't stink. Haven't worked with fiberglass, but assuming I'm right in thinking it's glass fiber in some sort of resin...yuck.
