Question Carbon Fiber Sheets + Resin (Where Can I Get It?)

Hey,

I'm looking for a sheet of "real" carbon-fiber (not the vinyl cf-look-alike) and resin. If anyone knows a good place in the GTA that deals with these products, drop me a line to:
pcalak@uoguelph.ca


I'd like to get some CF for a custom cluster project...

Thanks in advance,
Pete

I have seen resin at hobby shops (mostly train shops).

I've searched through all the posts with the "Carbon Fiber" keyword, but it didn't come up with any useful info...

I know that carbon fiber + epoxy is available at hobby shops, but I'm looking for a specific place that sells it. Preferably a place that has a choice of different materials and reasonable prices.

If anyone knows a name, address or website of a place that sells CF in the GTA, please share that info.

Thanks for the reply scarlemthug, but I'm looking for a place located in the GTA... not the US.

There must be some "fiberglass/kevlar/carbon warehouse" or something like that in the GTA. I'd like to pick ut this cf + epoxy myself, so I don't have to pay some crazy shipping fee...

just have it shipped to the border and pick it up. I believe i posted an email address for a mailing address that u can use for $5 a package in buffalo.

The only place i can think of in the GTA is Xrated?

...The CT resin won't work with Carbon Fiber. A special "epoxy" and a "bubble remover" is required to make stuff out of CF. Make sure to send me a PM if you remember where you saw CF sheets for sale...
