Fiberglass Chopped Strand Cloth (1.5 oz, 50" x 10 yd) vs Fiberglass cloth 6 oz, 50" x 12 ft, plain weave
Overall winner: Fiberglass cloth 6 oz, 50" x 12 ft, plain weave
Key Differences
SIMPLYHARDWARE's chopped strand cloth (1.5 oz) lists a lower price tier and is noted for conforming to tight curves and compatibility with polyester and vinylester resins, making it suited for detailed composite work. SIMOND STORE's 6 oz plain-weave cloth comes in heavier 3-pack sheets with higher tensile strength and more mixed feedback on density (some users find it too thick), so it’s better for projects needing heavier reinforcement
