trying to start a thread on painting (all inclusive) and bodywork (removing dents, etc.) because, well I want to learn it and im sure there are tons of viewers wondering/wishing the same thing.

If you have bodywork/Paint know-how, share here!

So I do have a question, where is the best place to buy fiberglass and the resin, as well as bondo?

Edit: Also, what is the best type?
I'm going to be molding my rear splitters on in the spring, and my skirts before winter, hopefully.
