CF is easy to work with really,but it gets spendy and takes a bit of time to get the coats flat and smooth.....love the work man,I cannot wait to start doing mine this Fall.

I agree. Most of the work is sanding. I usually end up putting 5-6 coats of resin on each piece. Everything else is easy. The resin and hardener was the most expensive part for me. The CF itself is only about $30/yard.
