Ross -- 'glass treated for epoxy?

Ross,

I was just perusing your site's section on the s&g you're building and read about the deal on 7.5-oz. fiberglass cloth you got on eBay. I was also remembering that fiberglass cloth needs to be treated so that it'll work with epoxy. Was this cloth from a reliable source? If not, a test is probably in order before 'glassing the hull...

(thought I'd ask here on the bulletin board in case anyone else comes across alternate sources for 'glass)
