I am making a swim platform for my boat, out of 3/4" Plywood, and not sure what and how much glass and resin to buy. From what I can come up with I THINK I need 1.5oz. glass, 2 layers? The platform is 90" X 18" X 1 1/2".

It's going to be painted and have non-skid rolled on the top. I think I need to prime, roll the non-skid and then paint (please correct me if I am wrong). I am by no means a painter or fiberglass guy, but I do learn quick. Any help would be great, maybe with some links and part numbers for supplies would be excellent! I have a local paint shop that I can get a good deal on this stuff, but I would like to see if I can get it cheaper online somewhere.

Also, what are the steps of doing the glass and resin? Do I do a coat of resin on the ply first and let dry? Or do I coat it, lay the glass and coat again then let dry? Thanks in advance everyone!
