It's owens-corning foamular from Home Depot. The trick is to use an epoxy resin & not poly resin, which is what fiberglass resin is. Thanks for the comments, I've been REALLY slow on this thing lately. My wife is due with our first child just about any day now so I've been spending alot of time getting things ready for her.Originally Posted by kennycoulter
