: What's meant by "water white"? Does it dry clear or is it
: meant only for painted surfaces?

Water white means colorless and transparent like pure water. The resin has almost zero color to it.

: No odor, but you still wear a respirator, correct?

Correct.

: Ever use it on S glass? Any pros or cons there?

For the hybrid Night Heron project I've been working on, I've used it on carbon fiber and S-glass. With a warm shop, both wetted out just fine. For faster wetting add some Additive F.

: And do you have a supplier you use? Can't find anyone listed in New
: England.

I ordered direct from RR. Greenlight Surf Supply (PA) is also great to work with.
