Have you ever heard of using Hemp fabric instead of fiberglass in laminating? alegedly hemp fabric is stronger and easier to work with,not itchy on skin like fglass.. https://youtu.be/Kgg0zpckGRU ...

What are the mechanical properties of the fiber and how does or compare with graphite, Kevlar, or FG? The fibers by them selves have no strength except in tension. Resin stabilizes fibers to give them strength, for most repair applications one would do on a FG RV just about any fiber will work. I have used old bed sheets and epoxy resin for repairs. Repairs usually fail in the bond line not in the fiber matix. Where would you commerially buy woven hemp?
