I've searched the archives, but can't find a reference to a book for doing fiberglass repair. Anyone have a really good one which is for dummy's?

A useful addendum is the guide published by West System. You can pick one up at West Marine or other chandlery. It will explain the various resins, hardeners and fillers to use with different projects.
