Comparing cost

how much does Resin, fiberglass, power epoxy etc cost in your country?Materials that are commonly use in boat building in FRP. Just want to know coz maybe supplier here are charging too much for it.

Resin = 3.60$ USD per liter.
Fiberglass= 3.20$USD Per kilo
epoxy resin= 11.40$USD per liter

This prices are repacked meaning not buying in drums.

Thank you.

There are hundreds of formulations for resins and different types of fiberglass. Price alone is not a fair comparison.

Here in Thailand resin is about 100 baht per kilo bought in a plastic water bottle with a plastic bag and an elastic band around the neck. 40 baht to the dollar. You get a tiny bit of hardener too,--oh and some cobalt I think it is --blue stuff, that makes it go pink!!!.

No Idea on the others.
